March First for Al Awda
My heart is with all
who march March 1st ...
with all who value every home
& family.
All who value freedom of
(and from) religion.
All who crave and help create
fair and just laws...
All who write stories and poems, and paint,
all who build beauty & museums for Palestine.
All who vote for full and equal rights
and respect.
Every step marched yesterday
today and tomorrow for Al Awda
is amplified a thousand fold,
by all who can not be there.
And amplified again, and again
for Al Awda, amplified a trillion fold
by every refugee.
My heart is with all
who march for real justice
and a lasting peace.
