Malak Kalmoni. Chehab Well said, Malak! We must be adaptable on our journeys of self-discovery; we must accept and expect that much is unknown. Your philosophical analysis of the parts of or requirements for being brave and self-aware is excellent synecdoche. Your stanzas are so well developed and balanced, your rhymes are powerful. Great poem!! By, Linda Powers O’Dell

Soar into Change

Any journey where all is known
Is too predictable,  boring even,
While the bends, ups, and down
Aren’t fixed, they do stay hidden

The beauty of self awareness
Is in being flexible, adaptable
To changes that can repress
The ability to move forward, that’s indomitable.

Catch the fire of self-discovery
That soars above your comfort
Zone, where all is set, scheduled, an armory
Of built masks that dissuade building a port

Where support and change
Are an integral part of being brave
Enough to be aware that a stagnant age
Is a slow death of imagination as a bondslave.
