Honorable Mention To Jerusalem, Three Font Holy” Gary Blankenship Holy, who first set down your sacred stones? Did fresh blood freely flow from new altars until the rancid flood tarnished God’s throne? Did you ignore His pain? Did you not hear Him cry as another innocent died? I wish not, but your face has Herod’s sneer and your lanes run copper with human pride. Jerusalem, if I could cry for you, my tears would not turn the quick-flowing tide. Al-Quds, if I had Allah’s ear, the few pale words in me would be too late and weak to cease the carnage. It will continue until after the Earth’s valleys fill, peaks tumble and seas boil. Man will never learn how to soften his bellicose speech. And your streets will be stained red forever. |
