Supernova Festival, October 7th, 2023

barefoot dancers, blissed Nova tribe, party vibes;

hell soon comes for happy hippies, sublime

spell quelled, festival final fate spelled out.

Sinister shadows, sunny skies suddenly darken,

evil eyes survey, para-gliders slyly preyed;

bullet sprayed – dancers lay dead, played dead:

Hamas hunt with unjust blood-lust.

Screams, and scattering, fleeing thwarted,

escape plan aborted, car windows bullet-shattered;

marquee empty, sound system eerily silent:

victim violence videoed with godless glee.

People pray; Elisha’s mighty angel army

absent: no sword raised, no arrows aimed –

Torah prophets proclaim Yahweh’s promise –

Judah’s Lion awaits… God guards the golden gates.

Supernova Slaughter, Supernova Slaughter;

mourned sons and daughters – their siblings treading water;

kaddish prayers wailed, familial spirits impaled:

holocaust haunted, terrorist taunted, Israel undaunted…
