The Last Candles of Bondi

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "The Last Candles of Bondi."

This poem is a indictment of rising antisemitism and moral decay in Australia and the West. It opens with the massacre of Jewish worshippers on Bondi Beach and portrays the event as both tragedy and omen. The piece condemns political hypocrisy, cultural cowardice, and the normalization of anti‑Jewish hatred under the guise of social justice. Ultimately, it warns that society’s failure to confront this hatred will erode not only its morality but its humanity itself.
