Semite to Semite (Other) by PodPoet

Bloodshed spells the doom Of generations gone and to be Hatred seeths and boils over Poison ivy kills the olive tree Hey, don't we look the same We children of Abraham Praying to the same God Slaughtering the same lamb Deep dark eyes Under glamorous lashes Victims alike Of different fascists Crucify and curse And murder ourselves Even as we drink From the same wells Time to embrace Semite to semite And stop for good This endless fight Deep dark eyes Under glamorous lashes Victims alike Of different fascists Kill the cliche Undo the past Build a peace Built to last A dry desert home Where both tribes agree To honor and worship The other's dignity Deep dark eyes Under glamorous lashes Victims alike Of different fascists

The indentations are not needed. Also for someone who wants to kill the cliche, there's a lot of it here...maybe that's the point.
