“Tonight We Die as a Family” a poem by Mohammed El-Kurd.

Tonight We Die as a Family
At the hospital the nurse is startled a surprise visitor: her husband's corpse on a stretcher
he arrived in the backseat of a taxi - a makeshift hearse.
There are not enough ambulances in Gaza and more than enough death.
She is livid. Men never listen I told you wait till after my shift I need to tend to the wounded first I told you tonight we die as a family we were supposed to die as a family
