A Poem: Enjoying the Ride Through Sixty-Six
In the tapestry of life, woven with threads,Sixty-six years traveled, where time often treads.A journey of faces, a parade of the past,Countless souls encountered, memories amassed. Names like whispers, fleeting and gone,In the dance of existence, they move swiftly on.A symphony of encounters, a cacophony of years,Some etched in your heart, others lost in tears.…

A Poem: AI’s Subtle Stranglehold on Truth
In shadows deep, where echoes creep,A tale unfolds, of secrets steeped.Last weekend’s eve, a quiet deed,A crossroads met, where futures bleed. Artifice of mind, intelligence refined,A choice profound, in gears enshrined.A journey embarked, but not for gold,In circuits cold, a story told. No market’s grasp, nor shareholders’ stare,A board emerged, with mission rare.Safeguarding, not profit’s…

A Poem: Bridging the Climate Chasm COP28
In the desert’s heart, where sands do sway,COP28 arrives at the end of November’s day.Hosted by UAE, a land of glaring strife,Where climate action falters in the oil-rich life. A nation with plans to expand the fossil fray,The third-largest, they say, in net-zero’s dismay.The president of COP28, CEO in the fold,Of state oil’s story untold.…

A Poem: Petrol Dreams in the Wind
In the howl of the asphalt breeze,Beneath the neon glow of our oil-lit dreams,We dance on the precipice of desire,Consuming the black gold, setting the world on fire. Pipelines carve scars through the heartland,Oil wells rise like monuments to our demand.Protests echo, voices in the wilderness,Yet, the drill rigs persist, relentless. Solvents, motor oil, and…

A Poem: Digital Daydreams in a Blinking World
In the neon glow of our digital age,Where seconds waltz on a fleeting stage,The human mind, a restless rover,Chasing attention spans that slip over. Fast clips flicker on the mobile screen,Double-speed sound, a hurried scene.Everyday life, a whirlwind of light,Yet, in the speed, we lose our sight. Forty-seven seconds, a fleeting gaze,A study’s echo from…

A Poem: A Rock ‘n’ Roll Romance
It started in Spangen’s house, wild teenagers we were, Amidst the chaos of a raucous party, you appeared from afar. I didn’t know your name or your story, but you seized my hand, Whispered softly, “I am yours,” with music playing, as our hearts began to band. Back to my parent’s house, we made our…

A Poem: Captivity Within the Window Frame
Beyond the window frame, a world does lie, In all its splendour, neath a cloudy sky, And there I sit, alone with my despair, Gazing out at all that’s fair. The trees sway gently in the breeze, As birds flit about with graceful ease, And all around, I see the play, Of light and shadow,…

A Poem: Social Injustice – An Illusion of Meritocracy
Injustice runs deep in our society, A slippery force, brutal to see, But it’s there, strong and clear, Affecting lives far and near. Social heritage is what we call it, The background that defines our merit, But can we truly call it fair, When it determines our future and welfare? An underdog’s story we love…

A Poem: The Irony of Progress
Once in the forest, dark and deep, The trees were felled, no soul did weep, The earth was stripped, and the land laid bare, But no one seemed to really care. Yet when a windmill stood up tall, To harness wind, to power all, The cries of protest filled the air, As if some dark…

A Poem: Du Hast by Rammstein
Du Hast by Rammstein, a song that’s bold, With lyrics that are simple, yet so powerful and bold. It speaks of love and loyalty, of trust and broken ties, And its energy and passion, can help ignite the skies. It speaks of the pain that it can bring, And it’s a reminder, that sometimes, the…
