Our Communal Life


From family to tribe
to settlement to nation.

When we work together,
anything is possible.

When we work at odds,
prosperity dwindles for all.

    Tribes

    The more abstract, the easier
    The lie. Borders dissolve;
    Those who can get out alive.

    Indigent and homeless, Sunnis
    Grovel in immigrant camps
    In Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey.

    Alawites staunch their purity
    While Christians cower
    And try not to take sides.

    Old news stays news’
    Whoever has a grudge
    Picks up a gun to avenge
    Their murdered families.
