Cavities

Engulf my teeth

The destruction

Of my being

Paralleled

On a screen

genocide

In Palestine

Blood fills streets

And cavities

Brush your teeth

Ignore the screams

Dissociate

From mourn and hate

Can’t prevent

It’s too late

The apathy

Of human beings

Silent screams

Disturbing me

Decaying teeth

Seem obsolete

Feels powerless

Feels obscene

This may be the end

And we all shall die

futile now it seems

filling holes in teeth

The world is ending

And I’m brushing my teeth

Spitting blood

Children weep

Palestine

Forgive me
