You Are the Moon
As the moon, alone in the dark sky, Its light lightens the darkness, like You, whose presence illuminates by Existing alone, emblazon cheer’s bike
That rides an uneven trajectory Leading a life that radiates your flight While you light your path, cautiously You navigate using the kindling within to bite
The darkness with fear that’ll hunger To dissipate your glow of optimism, But your spirit and light will glitter And smolder the fire against pessimism
That oppresses in the night, But, you combat its limitations By letting your positivity soar, a kite Flimsy yet strong enough to conquer trepidation.
My poetry book, Perfectly Flawed poetry for change, is available on all eplatforms including Amazon. It was on the finalist list for the Canadian Book Club Awards 2023.

Mission: Escape
Whenever mankind faces existential problems They have two possible opposing reactions: Escape the present, and start somewhere else; Or alter your priorities to advance survival of humanity.
Historically, when Europe wanted to get rid of criminals, They placed them on a boat to the then ‘savagery’ Of North America, where indigenous people Roamed freely, thriving without the need That are imposed by the ‘guests’ who shot And killed indiscriminately to take over the lands. From this grew capitalist society that takes Advantage of its population to grow in powers.
Today, there are no undiscovered territories or unexploited ones. So … What recourse does humanity have for its survivals? All that’s left is space, Mars, our closest Neighbor Is millions of miles away with an uninhabitable atmosphere. Technology is advancing at such an exponential rate That a mission to Mars is a proven possibility.
Man’s an ostrich!!!! He hides from his problems rather than face them! Instead of spending billions on fixing earth, He spends hundreds of billions on space travels. How can we progress if we can’t solve our obstacles? Civilizations will die down because of this, And people’s acceptance of change is in paralysis.
