Sharon, the Man of Peace
Sharon, the dogs will, of course, call you
The Man of Peace
By your blessings they fill their stomachs
with human meat
In the senate of the vultures
you will surely get hundred percent vote
in favour of your genocide.
Those vile insects, donning their black jackets,

for, you have made them a gift
of hundreds of corpses
and uprooted a whole freedom-loving population
from their homeland.

into a foul-smelling, vulture-loving, dumping ground
of dead cattle. Your hand has always been steady
in the act of murdering men,

killing numberless men, women and children
in Sabra-Shatilla-Jenin.
You have presented the Western world the vanquished corpse
of Arab nationalism—
Sharon, a man of peace like you
is a rarity in this world.
