Under the strong southern sun
we stood together in our solitary silences
Psalms and words of modern poets
Agnon and Uri Tzvi
and neighbors whose pain
will never be healed
never erased
No protection from the sun
on the hillside facing Jerusalem
No protection from the government
which wants to destroy us
Sages say
only through suffering
will we redeem our Land
Haven't we suffered enough?
