What should a poet do in such a world? Write poems. Zbigniew Herbert, as a Warsaw adolescent, saw the only choice clearly enough when he said: "One might still offer / even to the betrayed world / a rose."To write poetry, even in the most hopeless of situations, is an act of faith-not only in poetry itself, but in the world. And who knows? Maybe someone will even read you someday, awaken to his or her own life, and live it with little more laughter and sanity, more dignity and passion.

From "War as Parable and War as Fact: Herbert and Firche"

the men in Palestine cry too

did you know the men in Palestine cry too?

tremble with fear. shake and shiver in the cold.

they blush, bruise, and bleed red like any woman or child.

they dream and pray and and smile and sing. they are poetry enough. worthy of the name ‘innocent’.

the men in Palestine despair and anguish and hope against hope.

beneath their ribs are hearts where women and children are kept safe forever.
