Hebrew writing and Arabic writing go from east to west	A
Latin writing from west to east	B
Languages are like cats	C
You must not stroke their hair the wrong way	D
The clouds come from the sea the hot wind from the desert	E
The trees bend in the wind	F
And stones fly from all four winds	G
Into all four winds They throw stones	H
Throw this land one at the other	I
But the land always falls back to the land	J
They throw the land want to get rid of it	K
Its stones its soil but you can't get rid of it	K
They throw stones throw stones at me	L
In	M
Semites throw at Semites and anti Semites at anti Semites	H
Evil men throw and just men throw	N
Sinners throw and tempters throw	N
Geologists throw and theologists throw	N
Archaelogists throw and archhooligans throw	N
Kidneys throw stones and gall bladders throw	N
Head stones and forehead stones and the heart of a stone	O
Stones shaped like a screaming mouth	P
And stones fitting your eyes	H
Like a pair of glasses	H
The past throws stones at the future	I
And all of them fall on the present	Q
Weeping stones and laughing gravel stones	H
Even God in the Bible threw stones	H
Even the Urim and Tumim were thrown	O
And got stuck in the beastplate of justice	H
And Herod threw stones and what came out was a Temple	R
	-
Oh the poem of stone sadness	H
Oh the poem thrown on the stones	H
Oh the poem of thrown stones	H
Is there in this land	J
A stone that was never thrown	O
And never built and never overturned	S
And never uncovered and never discovered	T
And never screamed from a wall and never discarded by the builders	H
And never closed on top of a grave and never lay under lovers	H
And never turned into a cornerstone	O
	-
Please do not throw any more stones	H
You are moving the land	J
The holy whole open land	J
You are moving it to the sea	H
And the sea doesn't want it	K
The sea says not in me	H
	-
Please throw little stones	H
Throw snail fossils throw gravel	R
Justice or injustice from the quarries of Migdal Tsedek	U
Throw soft stones throw sweet clods	H
Throw limestone throw clay	D
Throw sand of the seashore	V
Throw dust of the desert throw rust	W
Throw soil throw wind	F
Throw air throw nothing	U
Until your hands are weary	H
And the war is weary	H
And even peace will be weary and will be	H
