Israelis were murdered
Palestinians (if there is such a thing)
Lost their lives, like coins
Down the back of the sofa
Or left, inadvertently, on the bartop
After they’d been drinking
And yet insisted on driving
To the hospital to visit their relatives
Who were known to be terrorists

That’s why he was a lawyer
Specialising in human rights
