Ciao ,

Not any
Source of light is the right one.

Since Covid and the wars (Ukraine and Gaza) life for most honest hard working people has been hell.

Going by the crazy choices made by our leaders , it's obvious that they are not acting in the best interest of us ,the people, the nation.

Our leaders are pursuing their own agendas, provoking wars ( Ukraine / Russia) , or becoming complicit in war crimes like in Gaza , vetoing three UN calls to ceasefire so humanitarian aid can reach children that are starving.

Our leaders are corrupt and they no longer stand for democracy .

Now Biden wants to drag on the Ukraine war ( lost already last September 2023 ) because if he admits defeat he will lose the elections.

So Ukraine troops continue to die , the Americas , Canadians and Europeans are fed more lies.

The money wasted on the wars when in our countries the people are struggling on a daily bases to stay afloat.

When I feel I'm about to be overwhelmed by all this madness, chaos I head to my pine forest in search of peace and quiet where I can speak to God.

HE IS MY SOURCE of LIGHT. HE LIGHTS MY PATH.

I know He loves me, His word is truth. I trust Him. He wants my wellbeing.

    Thank you for your honest review. Isn't it disgusting how much money ?trillions of dollars? gets fed into military operations by witless, short sighted, corrupt politicians only out for their own gain while thousands die and thousands more are left to suffer in deplorable conditions. This beautiful world is being tarnished by these maniacal "leaders!"
    ?hold on to your strong faith:)

    Ciao,

    Obviously, Biden bought precious votes and has now obtained the 61 billion he was asking for since Sept last year.

    He can now drag the war on in Ukraine until the elections.

    More money down the drain and more lives will be lost.

    In May Zelensky's mandate is over, and he refuses to have elections cause he knows the people are not with him anymore. He most likely will be killed by his people within the next few months.

    Good riddance. He is corrupted to the bone

    Due to the war in Ukraine, the grain is now contaminated by mercury and arsenic. Their once-rich soil, water, and air are contaminated.

    After the pandemic,I thought nations would come together and get the global economy back on track.

    Instead, all our leaders focused on was gaining power.

    I don't think we can save ourselves from self-destruction.

    We trash our home planet and kill other human beings.

    Today is the 25th we honour those who died to free the world from the likes of Hitler... and yet today Israel continues to commit war crimes.

    And Biden eats ice cream while children in Gaza are staving.

    Sorry for the rant.

Sorry to hear that you are going through hard times, I hope you come out of it alright eventually. Your choice of picture showing just the shadow adds to the intensity of the poem.

This is so short and yet effective. I love what you have done by disconnecting your final line. I wonder if it could be further over right justified, to increase the disconnect and emphasise the feeling of dysphoria further. Great work anyway. Good Luck in the competition.
