Ramy Ditzanny
Ramy Ditzanny (Hebrew: רמי דיצני) is an Israeli poet who was born in 1950. His most famous poem is "Baal Akhshuv," which can be translated as "Lord of the Spiders." The name is a parody of Baal Zevuv, "Lord of the Flies." Subtle connections are made between the ancient Canaanites and the modern Palestinians.
