For your abandoned tents

And bemoan your cursed existence.

Sometimes a sword, sometimes a gun
They will keep on speaking Her Name
Some in pain, some in shame

I am the Pancratium of Sauron

And grow big yellowing leaves

Back up and shorewise
Dry land awaits ahead.

And the wind whistles high in the reeds

And Paharoh marched into the Red Sea

The Revolution of Darmok, Jr.

Will not be aired tonight on TV
Because Darmok and Gilad, are in Tanagra.
The sun set in Shaka when the walls fell down
Shaka! When the walls fell down.

And when they reached its top,
Stopped to look out unto the horizon,
Upon the promised land.

Nothing in the world, no nothing in the world
Like the old lower east side

When iron topples down over charcoal
When fire consumes steel and stone
When multitudes fall, when towers fall.

Blue and pretty is the sea in my city
I love my city.

Fall of the Pleiadeans #1:
Help is Offered

At first they acted clandestinely, securing Area 51 as a
base of operations, teaching Earthlings some advanced
science in return, even taking scientists and politicians
for rides in their spaceships to various places in the Solar
System. They had to act s

The Key - #1: The Eshkolot Cave

I asked him: "What are you doing here?"
He said: "Help me open this."
I replied: "I can't, it's locked."

The Key - Chapter #2

The computer said: "Moshiach doesn't come, Moshiach doesn't
even phone." Which reminded me. "Horev, I want to call home,
so they won't worry about me."

The Key - Chapter #6

"Well, My father says we must sacrifice young boys to the
Molekh or he will get angry at us and we'll have no food,"
she said at last.
"And you believe that?"

The Key - Chapter #7

Suddenly, the Priest said something and the entire audience
went on their knees. Without thinking, I just knew what to
do. I jumped off the dais and started running. Hands
snatched at me. I tore at them wildly and continued to run.

The Key - Chapter #8

"No, I'm not insane or anything. Look at this, for
instance." I showed her the flashlight.
She looked at it as if seeing such a thing for the first
time.
I turned the light on at the ground next to us.
"What.... How do you do it?" She gasped.

The Key - Chapter 3

He explained to me that in every generation there were the
elect few who strived to bring the Messiah, and that it is
the duty of every Jew who is requested to assist it to do
so.

The Key - Chapter 4

I did not understand. Where was that building? Where was the
iron gate? And what was this village doing there?

The Key - Chapter 5

"Hashem is my God, and I'm Jewish," I answered.
"Shh..." she whispered. "We are of the Kingdom of Israel
here, and my father is the Chief Priest of the Molekh."

The Key - Chapters #9-10

I blinked, surprised at the midsummer noon sun. "Quick, no
time to stay here," he prodded me.

I hesitated. "What about Daria?"

"Daria? Who's Daria?"

I turned around. No trace of the girl.

Forget It

אקאפלה

Forget it.
Forget it, girl, I said.
I said forget it.

And so you see I have come to doubt
All that I once held as true

The only truth I know is you
