Bella Belisima (from "Lazooz")

Bella Belisima (from Lazooz)

This is a story
worth educating children with
This is a worthy
story
Tuesday, 12th May, 1992
A woman steps out of her house
in Jerusalem
Normal, standard day
nothing special
like any other day

A load of kids in the streets --
There was a teachers' strike
Same time exactly a revolting terrorist
Pulls out a kitchen knife
and
with it
stabs two innocent kids

Another mad, cruel attack
Another nationalist attack

He sets off running because a mob
is in pursuit
And catches him after a few
seconds
in the car park.
Tens of people kicking him --
They want to close the score

I don't judge them
It's an irrational event
It's a flawed situation
awful, revolting, unclear

But then turns up the woman
and alters the end of the story
Because she straight off throws
herself on the terrorist
and
protects wit hher body
the terrorist
who is also a human
lthough without
her body
would have ended up a corpse

"I don't understand,
weren't you afraid with that madman
beneath you
and the mob so close?
Wouldn't it have been easier to give up and leave?"
