Yesterday I Prayed A Prayer For Peace: In Israel In Gaza Poem by Terence George Craddock

yesterday I prayed a prayer for peace
on my knees for the innocent for the innocent souls
caught up in conflict in Israel in Gaza;

now is time sweet tasting words peace love forgiveness
turn bitter in mouth to hate; rage cruelty revenge torture;
I know coastal skies from Gaza to Israel day bloomed
white smoke rocket missile trails piercing Israeli skies;
attempting killing hundreds innocent Israeli civilian lives
trails I saw coastal skies from Gaza to Israel bloomed;
with over 5000 rocket missile trails red fire rage missiles
night hate revenge blood lust fired into Israel by night;

I know Israel your defenses were overwhelmed as Hamas
knew they would be I know Israel fired precision precise;
rockets in return into Gaza destroyed Hamas target buildings
as Hamas knew you would do calculated you would do death;
of Palestinians in return strikes is business as usual butcher's
bill for Hamas necessary prize in innocent militant life Hamas;

gladly pays celebrating killing 900 Israeli citizens
how many bath tubs of blood would it take to quiet;
your blood thirst; even an Olympic; swimming pool
filled with over 660,000 gallons of blood would still;
only wet your blood thirst Hamas; your goal is death
of every Jew on earth; your goal total Jewish extinction;
event the death; of every Jewish; man women child on
earth; your claim not a single Jew; deserves the right;

to live anywhere on earth; nor the right to an inch of land;
in the entire world; beware Allah has seen desires your heart;
an angel has written your sins; into a book awaiting a reading;
of your sins on judgement day; beware Hamas God created;
the heaven the earth; has set his face against you; against
your ally Hezbollah; against evil schemes filling hate hearts;
God has said ''I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws
and bring you out with your whole army'' a terrible fate awaits;
Ezekiel 38: 4
The end is not yet, this is a beginning, first steps taken.
Ezekiel 38: 1-33
