The Background G

Art from Gaza by the incredible and terrifying Marah Khalad. Support yourself here.

'Israel' is killing hundreds of us every day
That's just every day these days,
these unending end days.
At the end of history.

America is stealing from us in every way
That's just business these days,
Tariffs and immigration sheriffs,
Wars and rumors of war,
You know the signs.

These unending end days,
When good is fighting evil,
And the Antichrist is banal,
And 4 horse have left the stable,

It feels like a fable,
Except the bad guys have got away with it
Not just for three years,
Or even fourscore,
But for 4 centuries.

Oh this long collapse.
Too long coming
Too slow collapsing.
Each day a Daguerreotype to the heart.

Oh these unending endings.
The end of 'Israel'
The end of America
The end of White Empire, entire

Yes they're killing every day,
But they're the ones dying.

That's why they don't censor the horror,
And do censor the honor,
They want you to be terrified of resisting,
And ignorant of the Resistance.

But Hamas is killing a few 'Israelis' every day,
And PIJ and PFLP are still at play,
And though they can't keep the ghouls at bay,
Every day they fight the dying.

And Yemen is still showing honor in every way,
Being decapitated but still having the balls to say,
“Triumphing for the oppressed Palestinian people”
In every communiqué

As the Gaza genocide becomes the background radiation,
Of a TV tuned to a dead station,
As a superpower goes supernova,
And collapses into a White Hole of humiliation,

I know it feels like you're dying.
But it's their funeral.
