ALL EYES ON PALESTINE

All eyes on Palestine,

now that Apartheid Israel

burns and slaughters Rafah

in devastated Gaza.

Yes, all eyes on Palestine,

but remember to gaze long

at Sudan also, and all the other

places where the powerful ones

of the planet have for decades

stood with the oppressors, or

just ignored the suffering;

from East Turkestan to West Papua

from Chechnya to Western Sahara,

from Cyprus to Western Sahara,

from Kashmir to Tibet,

from Kurdistan to Eritrea.

All eyes on Palestine,

yes, but let's have enough

eyes for the suffering

of the whole world.
