I am Israel
by Eugene Samolin
A cell inside my
body,
A man inside my house,
A house inside my city,
A city inside my country,
A country inside my world.
The world is a reflection of myself,
Like a light trapped in a mirror,
Reflecting into my eyes.
A pearl inside an oyster,
A diamond in the rough.
A baby in the womb,
A body in a tomb.
I am my own company,
Together, alone.
I am an alien nation.
Am I empowered,
Or a coward?
