Uneasy Poem by Peter Eliastam

Uneasy



With incandescent luminum we brood on God,
Endued with seers, our insight for tomorrow’s exodus to home subdued
By hindsight, Jews elect to tears.

Cued by magniloquent peers par-blind to good,
We bind with foresight to the hand and forehead ancient filaments
Of Jewish aspirations and of fears.

We lie together, coiled in accrued arrears,
Embroiled in a world conspiracy of profiteers. Our comfort disappears
Into the unforgotten web of tragic years.

Our sages of the Messianic Book have traced
The Multifaced of Ages, to conclude that He whom we in ignorance have
Sorely rued, rejected – reappears!

With consciences pursued by sharpened memories
Of spears and metal rivets bolted through His irreproachable physique,
We quail in our culpable arrears.
