After the war came
learning Posted 01.29.12 ELISHA
PORAT The sights and sounds from the burning Golan Heights and
the shelled enclave haunted me not only at night, but during the day as well. And even writing poems about memories of the

until I took my friends' advice and went up to Jerusalem. Elisha Porat writes on a kibbutz in Israel.

use are tears? My tears indeed, for I proudly held them to a trickle. Swear revenge? Oaths sworn and vows made as I walked
the hall? What good had swearing revenge been when it was so desperately needed? Elisha Porat writes on a kibbutz in
Israel.
