This poem was read by Nourul-Islam abu Huwaishel just 45 minutes before he was killed by the Jewish state:
A letter to Arabs
In Gaza, we are alright
Comfort us with good news about you
In war, we are alright
How about you?
Our martyrs are under rubble
Our children are living in tents
Asking about you, where are you?
In Gaza, we are alright
Comfort us with good news about you
The Sea is behind us, but we still resist
Our enemy is in front of us, but we still resist
We’ve got enough weapons, food, and promises of peace
We thank you for your “support”
Our souls, our wounds, our skies, our homes, our faces, our blood, our eyes, our coffins;
Protect us from your promises and your words
In Gaza, we are alright
Comfort us with good news about you
