The Right To Choose

The Right To Choose

By Lynn White

Some citizens of Israel are exercising
their right to return
to the places they came from.
The choice is theirs.

Other citizens of Israel are exercising
their right to return
to places they didn’t come from.
The choice is theirs.

New citizens of Israel may exercise
their right to return
to ever more places they didn’t come from.
Though less are making that choice,
the choice is theirs.

Only they have the right to choose where they settle.
Only the Chosen have the right to choose.
Only the Chosen have any rights at all.
