נפתלי פרימור, שירתי

They keep battling in Texas

Those that arrived from
East and West Jerusalem
Keep battle in Texas.
The New World
The different sounds
Failed to change their minds
They keep battle in Texas.
They refuse to forget
They refuse to say: it's all over
They demand The Temple
It's theirs exclusively
They keep battling in Texas.
From faraway they look at the disputed land
The wide ocean doesn’t make any difference
Its The Gods will
They keep battling in Texas.

The Free Ghost Wind

The free ghost band blows above the buffalo herds
Above the cedars and birch, as they weep
Above the mountains and the canyon walls
He's the spirit of the Father Land
It's you to remember that
The ghost whispers:
Now you're not relevant to American life
But I have the time
It's not upon the warriors to make the change
It's for the Great Spirit Eagle to judge
The ghost wind blows:
You have to cry
Wo-ha-li*

They Will Get You

On a high steep mountain
You're a treasure
Your soft flesh is a rarity
For the birds of prey
If you stay
They will feed upon you
You returned to safety
Walking in the city center
If you stay there
They will get you.

Poetry Instead

As the news of the killing
In Pakistan spread
It took me by surprise
Have I won?
Has justice been made?
Would it help me to survive
Over fanatic Islam?
I have to admit that I love it
I will buy myself a deep sea bass
Hoping to ingest some
Of the beast's remains
But it will not change the fish's taste
I can hear the bell's ringing
All ready for the next blow
It will come unless new rules
Are sustained:
No more killing
And poetry instead.

It is the Freeze

I have had more than enough of the
Bitter frozen nights
Months of no sun
The trees are black
Their roots lifelessly stack
In a frozen ground

The latest days brought a warmer wind
I pick up sound of far away
Flying geese
Not sure if it's a wishing dream

I walk on a frozen lake
Still and solid
But found a crack
It's new a first coming

If I stay, it might open up
Swallow me as one
Suddenly it comes to my mind:
That the freeze keeps me alive.

Will the Honey be Sweet in the Darkness

In the mornings
The honey was always sweet
The light and its sweetness were one
It come to my mind that's
Solar energy is being transformed
To the sweetness.
It makes sense to me.
I woke up in the middle of a night.
Straight to my honey jar,
I open it in total dark.
What a terrible taste comes out.

I'm Paid To Be With You

I look at you through
A half-full glass of red wine.
On the upper part,
You're the man of my desire.
You filled my heart.
I can't withstand those smart men
That make me feel
That they're above me.
You'll be with me.
On the lower part of the glass,
You're all I need
Strong- minded
I shall go with you.
But in the between, between the emptiness
And the fullness,
I'm not sure.
As the upper side grows
You get closer.
Buy me a second drink.
I'm paid to be with you.

The sense and the anti-sense

As I continue to support and to oppose god
It makes perfect sense to keep separate
The meat and the milk.
It's the Jewish religion.
A perfect anti-sense:
It's the meat that makes the milk.
It's the milk that makes the meat.
The sense and the anti-sense in one.

Earth's Extract

Out of the world of matter
Out of the world of living things
Out of the world of lovers
You're the extract of loving matter.

As for Romanticism

It inspires the romantic soul
Others have none.

The Prince's Wedding

Congratulations, to the young couple
Even if I never meet you.
I wish you happiness and love.
But I heard that 186 horses
Will be there to carry the glory.
What a shame, hundreds of millions of fans
Will be watching every step of the Royals,
Every expression on the royals face.
The wedding fulfills our desire to mix within
The upper class.
What a disease is that?
Many rich will intimidate Prince William's wedding
They have the money and the power.
While they're ripping off the others.
It's not fun
But a terrible injustice.

No Romanticism but They Stay

18th century romanticism declared:
Freedom for nations and individuals.
Let them be free.
By the end of the 20th century
Tens of millions
Moved across the seas
To be close to the rich.
The new romanticism reads:
Let them have the freedom to go back.
But they stay
Romanticism flashed away.
