Truth Is A Rock In Jerusalem Poem by Rayn Roberts

A bullet shot at Muslim men
Jewish men rocking at the Wailing Wall
Palestinian van driven into working men-

Jerusalem is broken, a thief
Pushing into El Haram al-Sharif
Taking Arab land for settlement
When a fair deal has not been settled.

We know the Dome of the Rock
The Temple Mount are holy
But are they when bullets fly within?

Well water
Olive oil

Separate when mixed

And a rock is just a rock
Unless we make it sacred:
Hurled in a riot, housed in a mosque,
One meant to kill, the other to inspire
