demonize me
insult and
anti semiteize me 
just let my children be
give them sweet moments to remember 
in a childhood of
living peers no hate or hidden fears
let them write ahappy stories
of fun times between soccer teams
screaming joyful cheers
the white & blue 
playing gazan teams'
write aliving heros' story 
unlike mine 
of the q
ueen of martyrs'
an angel that died for me 
march 16 0f 2003
r. i. p my hero rachel corrie
give to them my inocence that died
on that dark day of the ninth month of 1982
do you remember when i met my fate 
you had southern lebanon to your back 
running to celebrate 
it was you 
the big gun was yours 
it killed tristan anderson too
mine were also fatal wounds 
from mothers tears that pour 
for innocent blood that pours
from refugees that lived poor 
from 48 to 82 
to die in
a blood pool 
where mine spilled
is where i filled my weapon the pen
my tool

 Ahmad Tamimi

she asked me to write happy poems
that give birth to love songs 
no blood nor tears no darkness or wrongs 
she asked me for happy poems 
of candles that burn 
longer than times' are long 
moon lit nights end 
fearless of whats uncoverd 
in days' light in days'sight in loves'fight 
she asked me to write happy lines 
no victims of
 crimes or bombs
soo i try
to convince my pen
for once to lie 
to ignore the cries 
between ink drops 
dont hear gunshots
between ink drops
dont get shatterd by bombs
as i did my pen cried 
my ink turned red 
candles no longer burned 
as she died 
in the dark

am taking the r out of your revolution
cause you onely doing you
like inside out erictions
worrying about political corectness... See More

to get mic time sell books & gigs
you sold your soul
eating your words
hiding what you felt inside
a revolutionary embrassing
the demokratic liberal or republican party
three of the same evill entity
brushing the sheeps' clothing to help the wolf hide
your the revolutions' worst enemy
screaming resisting to exist
loud & proud
your just resisting to assist
to get your free meals
an easy ride
an established following
to help fulfil your dreams
in the name of the oppressed
in american ghettos ,iraq ,and philisteen
death is real
if you cant feel or
hear the screams
get a job and pursue your dreams
the revolution lives onely in those who
have no greed or fears .....

Ahmad Tamimi

my pen is hotter than africas' sun
ink angrier than africas' kidnapped son
whith his slave master on his knees
facing his own gun
ready to blast
to end that chapter
calmber than apalestinian
ready to blow
as they try to out run
bones & flesh
penetrating them like bombshells
bones & flesh
torn long before
he send them to hell
long before the blast
you see on every broadcast
but the american bombs & tank shells
into unarmed civilians
go uncast
cut out of history
mass lynchings of the progressive years
like the masacares of the natives
on the trail of tears
till he put the arrow between their eyes
to avenge
death of whole tribes
to start the american scheme
that you call the american dream
i ran out of kings dream
& spit at your democracy
when malcolm called it ahypocrisy
way back than
my revolution begun
before haliburton
got half the world burning
before south& central americas' world stopped turning
before i can walk talk or run
till death make us an immortal one
ill be her brother father & son...

Ahmad Tamimi

you watched this grow ,and become>>>>>>

who are we?
whats this noise i hear baba?
we are falasteen !
where hope struggles to breath
peace on its knees... See More

where uranium depletes humanity
wounded it bleeds
white phosphorus clouds
the skies not the minds
hate strengthens love
imprignates resistance
she breeds wariors
he fights occupioers
fearless of metal weapons
they carry bombs of truth
thats you baby
you are falastine
when your teacher tells you
like mine told me
here is the map show me
tell her to look inside you
listen between your heart beats
beyond the hate
beyond the lies
beyond the false state
false prophits false prophecies
crocodile tears & fake cries
she will see falasteen baby
you are falasteen
you are the map
the land
the army
the weapon
the fight
the truth
the love
that song between heart beats
she will hear
her biggest fear
inside you are
salah al deen
faris odeh
dalal mughrabi
ahmad yasin
george habash
abu jihad
rachel corrie
the flotilla nine
live in all who love falasteen
fight for freedom
or dare dream
for now baby
go play with your toys
untill that noise becomes
their voice
their word
your cause.......ahmad tamimi..
