Lots of information, keen observations, and perspectives written into this small well crafted poem, Kamran. I know too how the animals are being systematically killed into extinction. Unusal rhyme scheme with a refrain and something serious to think about.

Hello Ameen. When I think about and look back upon the type of writing you did when we first met and the caliber of how you write now, it leaves me with a big sigh. This is beautiful. xoxo Kiwi

I typically don't like this type of art. (I prefer the more detailed) but I like your peice. The green shading, the colorfullness you add with the hair beads and necklace. Most of all, I like the teeth!! Good job. Best of luck to you.

Ameen! Stupendous political piece. Your words, your message very well executed. Strong! I enjoyed the rhyming scheme you put in there. It flows harmoniously. And now the yellow! Great stuff. Great stuff.

'O Africa Beware' is not such a funny poem. That picture is scary too. But really, I think the place has gotten much better. Improvements everywhere not just South Africa either.
Nice style. Good work.

What a powerful piece, Kamran- please accept a virtual six for this educational piece of history- it is so sad what has happened to that country, and you have so eloquently stated it. Great effort! Holly

Comment from Jane Johnson
Nicely written. I liked the line "Nothing has changed in greed's delight." This verse flowed well and the structure makes sense. Thanks so much for sharing. I like the artwork you chose; it is most appropriate.

You are right Ameen. Time and time again, we are there. But what has it gotten them? Realty says it all. What a blooming facade.
