People do whatever they want. There's someone that regularly brings their dog (not a service animal) to my grocery store. No thanks. I don't want to be bitten by your big ass dog.

Bare shins paddling in
the river, souls bared floating
in each other's eyes.

This poem reflects on the basic things every child deservesβ€”safety, education, and a normal day at schoolβ€”and how the world fails when those simple protections disappear.

What the World Owes Children

A roof.
A desk.
A teacher
who says good morning.

A day that arrives
without fear.

Anything less than that
is a failure
we should never accept.

This poem is a personal reflection on how heavy the world can feel when you see suffering in the news, and the effort it takes to remember that kindness still exists.

A Thought I Had Today

Some days the world
feels heavier than it should.

You read the news,
close the screen,
and sit there a moment
trying to remember

that people are still capable
of kindness
even when history
forgets how.

This poem focuses on the quiet ways people help one another, reminding us that even when the world feels broken, ordinary people often step in to care for each other.

We’ll Be Okay

I’ve seen people
pull strangers from rivers.

I’ve seen neighbors
show up with food
when the lights went out.

The world breaks things,
that much is trueβ€”

but people
have always been
very good
at putting each other
back together.

This poem looks toward the future and reminds us that the world ultimately belongs to the next generation, encouraging hope that they will build something kinder than what came before.

What Comes Next

The future
has always belonged
to the children.

Not the generals.
Not the speeches.
Not the maps.

One day
they will inherit
all of this.

Let’s hope
they build something
kinder.

Children in schools should never be an acceptable cost of war.
Resist.

Thinking of the students and teachers at the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ primary school.
Resist.

These poems are for them. πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™
