Poem
Adi Assis
I CALLED GOD
I called God but there's noGod. But there was
God because I called
God. And if there wasn't
God what
did I call? And I called, I called
God. And there was, for a split
second, and there will be. He won’t
die. As long as
I keep calling
God.

קָרָאתִי אֱלֹהִים
קָרָאתִי אֱלֹהִים
קָרָאתִי אֱלֹהִים. וְאֵין
אֱלֹהִים. אֲבָל הָיָה
אֱלֹהִים כִּי קָרָאתִי
אֱלֹהִים. וְאִלְמָלֵא
הָיָה אֱלֹהִים מַה
קָּרָאתִי? וְקָרָאתִי. קָרָאתִי
אֱלֹהִים. וְהָיָה, וְלוּ
לְרֶגַע, וְיִהְיֶה. לֹא
יָמוּת. כָּל עוֹד
אֲנִי שָׁב וְקוֹרֵא.
