Israel Beckoned...In A Dream

This secular skeptic beheld,

eyes hallucinated, harried, felled

and haunted by

holographic images gelled

that didst silently scream herald

ding exhaustively

roaming, schlepping, meld

ding and trudging across

elapsed, nor quelled

blinkered, bloodied dead souls

across fractured wartorn veld,

where bludgeoned ghastly

eons of pain did weld

throbbing inside my

scepter templed mount, aye

vicariously experienced

cumulative historical grief

past to present anti

semitism I decry

incomprehensible genocide, (though

not necessarily exclusive domain

of Moses troopers), nonetheless I

find mine existence

ably linkedin sigh

lent lee to the

bosom of Abraham,

no matter such

quasi confession doth fly

in the face, despite devout atheism,

a genealogical kinship inherently

peppers the genetic

mind of this

questioning (authority type) guy,

whose lack of

religion cannot dispel

no matter fuzzy, gauzy,

hazy, et cetera,

asper the existence

of heaven or hell,

and no idea what

will become of

Matthew Scott Harris, when bell

doth toll mine death knell

though methinks, i.e. this fell

low will merely decompose

forever oblivious to

global pell mell,

whose corporeal essence will spell

reincarnation relegating molecular

composition of this aging

ordinary physical being

whose existence particularly,

poignantly, and plaintively

punctuated with delicately

framed psychological housing

twilight years echoing

punitive hardship just barely shaking

free, whence adolescent

aborted suicidal effort

near cleft flickr ring,

anorexia almost got life

extinguished, gut wrenching

yank key undergo wing

life and death struggle rattling

the long gone souls

figurative rusted empty cages,

whose legacy aching Diaspora, ages

ago scattered tribes, especially sages

Exodus to Babylonian Captivity,

(c. 12th to 6th centuries BC),

proud unknown forebears rages

against contemporary

Hebrews existential wages

of experienced unfair recent gauges

(recording heinous twentieth century)

opprobrious persecution quashing

valuable vital and voluminous

absent contribution Jews

never written pages

forever hidebound historical legacy

unfairly demonized ever since pre
