Eyeless in Gaza by Paul Lewton‏

Devils are magical, infantile.
They can turn fear into fear
Dispossession into repossession
Amnesia into alibi
Scripture into wall
Sonic boom into wake up call
Taunts into falling snow
Lorries into donkeys
Children into thrown stones
Solomon's song into phosphorous bombs
A nation into a living room with no front door.
