We turned about
Without giving a shout,
As six million Jews died.
Disinclined protesters
While the ancestors
Of six million Jews, cried.
Those same eyes blinded
Their minds unminded
To the Rohingya genocide.
Two million fled
Twenty-five thousand bled
Girls raped, then cast aside.
And mute to a Chinese abomination
Uyghurs’ enforced sterilisation,
One million lives waived.
Three million ‘re-educated’
Countless annihilated
Over five million enslaved.
History will show how with flexed claws,
Our violent, introspective world waged wars,
Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran hammered.
As if the Christians and Jews, flashing sabres
Had a divine right to choose their neighbours,
Has to be Jesus or Moses, but not Muhammad.
