Perhaps tonight I will feel redeemed
Every Jew went out of Mitzrayim, including me
So there's hope to escape my metzarim
All holy beginnings start with a spark of faith
Children will find and return the redemption
Here and now salvation, a blink of G-d's eye

Even in whispers
there are things we don't want said,
And yet, they are said
Specifically in whispers,
while G-d eavesdrops from above

I am ravenous,
not for food but for life,
not for any life, for eternal life,
not any eternal life, but for children
who will have a better life than me.

11 Years Ago

"How are you?" can mean
two very different things
It can mean, "Hello"
Or it can be much deeper:
Tell me, tell me, tell me - please
