Malak Kalmoni. Chehab Excellent reveille by a poem, Malak; it’s high time that we wake up to the suffering and inequality of this world. By repeating your refrain after every line in the first stanza, you create a powerful sense of urgency; you emphasize each travesty in need of redress. In your third stanza you address our consciences directly as you commend being humane empathetic and compassionate. I note your focus on “colonial consumerism,” no argument here, although almost all governments are inclined to exploit the resources owned by others. Justice and equality should indeed be our twin North stars. Superb poem, bravo!! By Linda Powers O’Dell
Thank you for the honor and your hard work
Why Not ‘Wake Up’?
‘Wake Up’, The world Is in chaos, ‘Wake Up’ The colonizer is a killer, ‘Wake Up’ The losses keep adding up, ‘Wake Up’ The deafening silence is complicit, ‘Wake Up’ You’re made to feel helpless ‘Wake Up’ Your job is to be aware ‘Wake Up’ Your job is to speak out ‘Wake Up’ Your job is to make others aware
‘Wake Up’ ‘Wake Up’ ‘Wake Up’
Your conscious is knocking, Let it in, it’ll remind you of being Humane, empathetic, compassionate, striving To ‘Wake Up’ others with you collecting Them one at a time, uniting, growing, In voice and power of the many, balancing The scale of colonial consumerism compacting Your goals into a materialistic being Rather than a human feeling Others’ plight, and appreciating, With certitude, what you have as striking In its simplicity and safety, conquering The world with justice and equality without blubbering.

Thank you, administrators, for the accolade. Your hard work is highly appreciated.
Revolution of Change
Colonialism’s Ideology is based on change, Change the ‘other’ because they’re different, Different in language, culture, morals, beliefs, Beliefs that spark imaginations’ Revolution, Revolution that asserts the need to exist, Exist in autonomy, exist freely, exist happily, Happily maturing into adulthood, Adulthood knowing that learning is constant, … …
Please the dominant who seems to succeed, Succeed in seeping into your mind, Mind, and replacing its values with rot, Rot that decays social values, Families, Families are broken asunder, and the backbone Backbone of society falls into rubble.
