Let’s Stop Trying to Blame Israel!

War reporters get killed and have gotten killed in every war or conflict that has ever taken place in the world and no one calls for an investigation! So, reference the Al-Jazeera reporter, Israel should not give them one. This reporter was in harms way and that’s one of the things that can happen to you when you stand in front of people shooting, you may get killed.

I don’t trust that the Palestinians gave the Americans the real bullet. Why should they be trusted when they harbour criminals and terrorists?

Although I feel sorry for this reporter from Al-Jazeera, I don’t think anything else should be done. It seems she may have been more than just a reporter but perhaps an activist too?

But not only the pro-Palestinian agencies like Al-Jazeera, who still say “occupied East Jerusalem”, and the BBC are continually coming down trying to place blame on an Israeli soldier but many others are still hammering on this nail. It’s time to forget it.

Israel has a right to protect itself, and they will. If you stand in the way of the IDF (Israeli Defence Forces) you might just have placed yourself in harms way…

Poem: “To the Beat of my Drum” #poetry

(Image property of FBC. Omnia Caelum Studios València. All Rights Reserved)

I look through the window with eyes in the sky,

then I look to the east,

crows flying by,

my mind on the music,

hands on the drum,

and I wonder how how far and how long

will I roam…

Till I change,

till I rise,

till the rhythm resumes for a while,

and I rest weary hands,

and I count a few bars,

and I pick up my rhythm again

and I start…

Heartfelt solo of beats that will wither

and dry in the frozen dark sky,

on the cottony grass,

on the fertile grey ocean,

on the mountain with rain,

time is always the same,

and I’ll beat on this drum

till my hands bleed in pain.

JaZzArT Fase IV/JaZzArT Phase IV (Español/English)

(Fase IV, No.1/Phase IV, No.1)

Como hice el verano pasado y otros anteriores, haré durante este la Fase IV de JaZzArT. He seguido, más o menos, la idea que hizo que la Fase II y la III tuviesen éxito, poniendo un fondo de colores abstractos (acuarela) y le sobrepongo las figuras con tinta. Esta fase será más ecléctica, ya lo verás…

Well, like last summer, and others before, I am developing Phase IV of the JaZzArT series. I have continued, more or less, with the form that made Phase II and III successful, that being the abstract colourful background in watercolours and the figures in ink. This phase will be more eclectic, you’ll see…

Aquí, para que os acordéis de la fase II, la primera a colores…

Gracias…

Cheers…

Poem: “I am a Drop of Water” #poetry

(Image properly of FBC. Omnia Caelum Studios València. All Rights Reserved)

I am a drop of water,

therefore I am the sea.

I am a breath of air,

so life thrives within me.

I am a motor car,

I am the rain.

I am the grass that burns,

but I’ll return.

I am the mountain,

the cold, the heat, it’s all the same.,

I am the touch that pleases

but can cause pain.

I am the thorn that lives together with the rose.

and I’ll remain,

Imperfect, flawed and damaged,

but blessed like the rain.

The sun rose, majestically and powerfully over the Aegean Sea, and now has set, but…

Well, these guys can say it better:

Yes, that is the skyline of Miami as seen from my balcony in Miami Beach looking across Biscayne Bay…

And here are some shots, again from our balcony. Going to miss this view but, I have a place here, I can always come back…

Cheers…
