Survivors Stories


They have much in common

those who survived.

All are shocked.

All are traumatised.

All are filled with hatred

for the perpetrators.


The Israeli survivors went home

to homes still intact

or rapidly rebuilt

to hospitals 

ready 

to dispense care 

when needed

to lives

ready

to be resumed

when they were healed.


The Gaza survivors

have no homes

to return to

no chance

to rebuild

the rubble

of their dreams.

No hospitals

ready

to dispence care

when needed

to lives

unready 

to be resumed.

To no food

no water

no heat.

No roads

to flee along.

No way back

only rubble

death

and hatred.


And what then?

What follows

in the next instalment.
