Review for my poem, Patient Timeful Warriors

Malak Kalmoni. Chehab Thats a Dang! Dear poet. Great circular trains of thought… The warrior as an antagonist alongside time and patience is intriguing, intelligent and strangely obvious and not immediately obvious at the same time… Any one who has served may resonate with this at a much higher level. Strong piece dear poet! 🙏🫡👍😃❤️

Patient, Timeful Warriors

Patient time sidles around knowing,
Knowing that you’ll eventually learn,
Learn that warriors full of brute force,
Force that turns into violent regret,
Regret that eats away your happiness,
Happiness that dissolves as its transient,
Transient time comes and goes, waiting,
Waiting patiently like the intelligent warrior,
Warrior who strategizes using patience,
Patience for the right information and time,
Time that’s right to act not go in unknowing,
Unknowing the dangers, pitfalls sown
By the hands of enemies whose joy,
Joy will be untamable at your fall,
Fall from grace, for you forgot that time
Time and patience have always been chief survivors.

Certificate of Appreciation  for my poem:

Thank you, administrators, for the honor and your hard work. 🙏

Power of Myths

The Myths of yore continue to be the core
Core of tales galore, that have fantastical,
Fantastical, epic adventures and morals,
Morals that still apply in modern,
Modern society where technology,
Technology, AI are what galvanize,
Galvanize social and ethical conscience,
Conscience of a humanity that’s fallen,
Fallen into depravity, hedonism,
Hedonism of empowering the ego,
Ego that promotes no piety,
Piety for powers greater than yours.

Cosby Show, Perry Mason

What TV shows did you watch as a kid?

As a teen, I enjoyed the Cosby Show, as it represented North American society and its critique through character interactions. The fact that I was an immigrant and needed to learn how families functioned in this region so I could better integrate in a society that felt strange to me.  A few years later,I became interested in how law is perceived and applied in courts, so Perry Mason.

However,  as I became an adult, I learned that these shows were to promote a particular ideology,  rather than represent actual society.  I was duly disappointed with that realization.
