Exert of the poem is above. It’s available on Amazon.com:
Cigarette 🚬
Holding it with my fingertips,
Caressing the paper filters,
Lighting a match, inhale, exhale airs,
Air that’s stuffy, foggy, stinky.
It casts an oppressive smell,
That you try to outrun like a bell
Ringing in lunchtime,
The smell becomes a halting
Breath that stalls in your lung
Fighting for oxygen’s purity
To flush out the dreadful
Odor that sticks to hair that fell,
And clothes that have a stench
Of smoke, driving you to asphyxiation
As you endeavor to hide from the pulverization
Of aromas that bleed deposits
Into bronchials that hinder
A normal breather.

Labyrinth
Life is full of predicaments,
Labyrinths are the only road available.
Line your car with gas that spars
Long with the deadly turns that are viable.
Longing for straightforward success,
Laying out your failures that press.
Limp around giving a guess
Looking forward to new life that’s not less.
Legends are complex and teach
Loyalty and friendship, but suppress
Liars that generate a great reach
Leaving them as villains that squeals.
Light up your life with loyals
Living through difficulties and prove
Logical in their enterprises
Letting the faithful mind make a succesful move.

Defining ‘Me’
As a teen, are you aware?
Aware of your strengths,
Aware of your weaknesses,
Aware of your beliefs,
Aware of your needs?
You may have a vague
Notion about all the above,
But can’t define any with clarity.
Make mistakes,
Learn from them, lessons,
Let’s live life with its joys
That reflect your awareness
Of successes and failures.
Your patience, reactions,
And actions define your emotions,
Those help to highlight your characters’
Flexibility when faced with adversities.
Accepting that failure isn’t an end
But a beginning; as it’s where you
Find out about yourself, and become aware.

Silver Light
Silver light shines so bright,
Reflects on your surface in a fight
To blot out the blight
Of oppressive night.
As it shimmers on the lake
At night, it dances with shadows, fake
In their adulation of your stake
In everything that’s ensconced in black.
Its silver sheen is reminiscent
Of the clouds’ silver lining that bent
The impossible to their heaven sent
Hope that relies on faith not being absent.

If you could make your pet understand one thing, what would it be?
Rules and discipline are for Sly, our GSD, like candy is to be eaten. He chews out the rules, trying to break them by being cute, cuddly, and loving. When he’s like that, I forget to enforce the rules!

Write about your first name: its meaning, significance, etymology, etc.
My first name is Malāk, in Arabic, it means angel. There are several variations to the name, Malika means queen, while Malek means king. Malak, with a short second a, is also a female name, meaning owner.
Malak- Accrostic
Marvelously mysterious
Amazingly amorous,
Lovingly, loyally laborious,
Ably available, rarely angry,
Knit kids and knock kings down to become kingly.

What makes a good leader?
A good leader needs to be selfless while making decisions for the benefit of others, his subordinates, or the people he’s responsible for. Leaders have the ability to take responsibility for the decisions they make, even baring the brunt of both negative and positive consequences of their actions. They are also compassionate but disciplined, give and take when necessary, and understand within limits of professionalism.
Unfortunately, today’s political leaders fall short of these qualities, as they think in terms of their own power: political and financial.

Drum Roll, Die
Life’s dreams of roses and colored glasses
Have been assassinated by explosions,
Devastation, destruction of homes and gardens,
Where flowers and innocence grew.
In their place, fog, smog, smoke spew
Chocking breaths and arrest hearts that drew
Their last drummer’s beat and fell in death’s pew.
When will their year of restitution
Come to being a realization?
When will they experience the exhiliration
Of being free without groveling?
When will their neighborhoods be overflowing,
Rehousing them, others, a community not governing?
Patience, faith, and unity will invariably
Win the fray always knowing the end is ‘liberty’
While social development soars accordingly.
