It's unleavened bread
served at Passover seders
symbolic of haste.
Square-shaped and corrugated
it looks like a big cracker.

Syria 
They are playing 
Politics 
With peoples life 

Russian Caviar and
American hamburger
Do not blend 
    
Passover and Iran
Break the bread mates.  
And restrain yourself....

Womb
belonged to her

steps crossed the doorstep
found limbs
and forbid them to cry

sterility painted
palm
came close
stopped at skin
she will be safe
 
there was no one
to
by lambs blood
cover
above door of
the house which used to call home...

“FOR whom the bell tolls…?

Bells can’t be unrung…

Facemasks ape closed doors

Graphic death curve flattening;
Death toll still rises…...

To all of you who wished me
  a relaxing, restful vacation
Your wishes carried me through 
  a bit of aggravation

A little insomnia here
  A cellulitis attack there
Things were going south
  I swear...

But come the Passover Holiday
  The Festive mood saved the day

So, thank you once again
  My wonderful poetic friends...

-Another one the songs in my Passover musical, "On Eagles' Wings"-

Yehovah, will You see?
Will You remember me?
When will you hear my desperate cry?

Yehovah, now I fear
Maybe You will not hear!
But if You don’t then we shall die

And so I cry, “Hosanna, please see and deliver us!”
And so we cry, "Hosanna, please see and deliver us!"...

     For those who want to ‘kill all the Jews’
        Here’s some food for thought

     Get a rabbi to extend Passover one more week
        You’ll love what will have been wrought

     For another week of ‘matzo only’
        Jews’ stomachs will do somersaults

     And that way it won’t be antisemitism’s fault
        ~ that our bowel functions came to a halt

      Two full cups of wine
         even before we dine
      
      Two more later, raised in song
        What could go wrong ~
        by midnight’s gong*



      __________________________ 
      *All food and drink must be con-
       sumed by the middle of the 
       night... A 'Seder' is the order
       of the ritualized ceremony of 
       Passover night....

~ A Poem for Passover ~

  Four questions
    Four cups of wine
  Four kinds of sons
    Four heroines in line

  Leah, Rachel, Bilha, Zilpa
    Four mothers, twelve sons
  Accompanied Jacob to Pharaoh's land
    at the command of the One

  God Of Israel, Who yet hears
    four mothers' descendants' pain
  and frees them each year from Egypt
    to extol His Name once again...

Wine, bread, bitter herbs
Blood, body, sin, suffering
