This write is based on the idea that Gaza and the Palestinians are not victims of hate, but because evil loves destruction, they are, in fact, the victims of love. The art metaphor was inspired by the Red Hand Files #355
Another beautiful day dawns in Gaza
as he admires his sculptures
victims of his love
Polishing rough edges
after careful, endless siege
Sulphur and ash pigments
splatter the canvas
Crushed concrete and tear gas
the rubble catches the morning sun
in negative spaces
The screams add new textures
to the palette
His meticulous love
crafting masterpieces
signed with an airstrike
His initials salt the fields
The critics gather
viewing from watchtowers
the tenderness in the demolition
the love in every line
In exhibition
his greatest work
entitled ‘Peace’
There are murmurs of great restraint
“the composition is heartbreaking”
Evil enjoys destruction
looks upon its work as art
with a curator’s pride
