Another loud protest
(cannot say “violent riot”)
somewhere about something,
draped with Palestinian flag
(seems to draw anti-semitic
sympathy). Recall October
seven or the holocaust? (If
history hasn’t already been
erased and rewritten.) Label
this poem “Islamaphobic”,
but immigration might be
smokescreen for takeover.
At dVerse poets this week, Lisa invites us to write a 44-word quadrille using a form of the word “screen”. A smoke screen is a cloud of smoke used to hide military movements, or metaphorically, any action, statement, or distraction designed to obscure the truth or divert attention from a real issue.
