Palestinian Suicide Bomber Girl. Wafa Idris had children, though none she conceived For each slain child of Palestine, like a mother she grieved When they died in her arms, she died inside This nurse with the heart of a mother denied My Palestinian suicide bomber girl This ballad examines her mendacious world She thought soothing madness would numb her to pain Yet her dying breath remains agonisingly sane Scarred deep when she died, more dead than alive Al Quds abides with damaged goods Sharpening suicidal knives Shaheeda Filistine! There is no cut cuts deeper than the Reaper's scythe When your people are corn you must bend to survive No one's a civilian in a war against children No one's a civilian; everyone's a victim Liquid eyes solidify a darkening soul I beg thieves return her the innocence they stole In my dreams she speaks but all I hear are sirens A carnival of screams Then silence Shaheeda Filistine! Wafa was a medic where violence thrives In a battered meat-wagon which never arrives In time to fan flickers in juvenile bones In her sleep she dreams dead children throwing stones As the valiant jews of Warsaw fought the Nazis long ago The Powers That Be betray them to struggle on alone 'Round the spine of time like a foetus curled Ghost of hope Palestine's first suicide bomber girl In a war against children there are no civilians In a war against children there are only victims Only victims; no one is neutral In a war against children there are no civilians In a war against children there are only victims Life's mere collateral Murder's habitual A ritual
