October 7th was an event which changed the world - militarily and strategically, within the university and the magazine, in the Middle East and throughout the Western World. There is no stone of life which it left unturned and so it is little surprise that is has spurred voluminous writing. What is hasn’t done is produce poetry. Until now. Until today. “Pure Jewish Anger” is unapologetically a poetry prose anthology.

So why have I turned to this most neglected of art forms? Why did I not simply follow the herd and produce polemic tinged with prose?
