I see what you mean in this poem. I produce a podcast every week, called The Village Oak Tree and it is an activist podcast were I interview other activists of one sort or another or the occasional commentary. Most recently a series of shows on the failing Empire of the United States. I am getting ready for another one in the series next week and I would like your permission to read this poem as a tribute to all of the mothers and children who have been martyred in this genocide in Gaza please.

If you are interested in watching or listening to any previous shows before saying yes, look for Crann na beatha on YouTube for a roster of my previous shows. Or look up The Village Oak Tree in any major podcast mobile app and find it under my name. If you still have trouble finding it, let me know and I will provide a link.

You have my permission. Thank you very much. I appreciate you speaking out about the atrocities happening in Palestine.

I have been writing and speaking about this in my podcast since last October and I plan to continue for as long as it takes until there is some kind of justice for the Palestinians. I have a long history of this going back decades since the troubles. Something that got me into a bit of trouble with the US. authorities back in the early 1980's.

I will do right by your poem and let you know when you can listen to it. Thank you.
