Listener – by Blog it or Lose It!

Shadorma

There it was
Peep hole through the fence
Inviting me”Come and look!
This is someone’s future home.”
Condominiums.

High risers
Living like sardines ….
Still, better
Than nothing …
Or so we might think, I guess.
People go camping.

Through the hole
I saw Lebanon …
Or Gaza …
Don’t know why.
Bulldozers —  and missiles fall,
Wounded baby cries.

Just a hole
Through a tattered fence —
Brings to mind
Many things
I walked away wondering
What the moon would say.
