I still

So Sunday was the first night of Hanukkah 

And there are still cops 

Outside the synagogue 

And there are still people who look at us

With murder in their eyes

And there are still shootings 

Here and there 


And I still wear my Star of David 

Under my shirt


Because I still can’t risk it
