No Accident The road to Khan Younis stretches across the stomped roots of decapitated olive trees a road new and wide and for Israelis only. Palestinians shoulder its divide and wait for permission to cross. Perhaps if there was an accident a careening of Israeli car with Palestinian truck at the Abu Holi checkpoint just outside Gaza city Perhaps a big accident and people did what people do in that moment abandon the rules of civil war They would, without speaking, make a bandage from the woman’s headscarf, find someone who doctors lock shoulder to arm to heave the vehicle from its tilt, dangling off the damned edge of occupation Unseen by the tanks of the world no one would tell no one would forget the moment when the memorized litany of hate was held at bay a tourniquet bound tight by human emergency On the road to Khan Younis where, oh where is an accident when we need one? S. Pearl Sharp c. 2002 S. Pearl Sharp / Poets Pay Rent, Too |
