9 Elul 5776
by Martin Nakell
the following is a dialogue between an israeli man (“lo” – “him”) and an israeli woman (“la” – “her”). their dialogue is interspersed with headlines from the 2011 jerusalem post.
i often write in only lower-case letters –
the first zionist congress was held in 1897
lo = him, an Israeli man
la = her, an Israeli woman
all of the material in bold are headlines taken
from the Jerusalem Post of 2011, the year the poem
was written.
