Literature transports us into the spirit realm of hope and penetrating truths. I wanted to share these pieces with you as solace, encouragement and to find the freedom to be ourselves despite all odds. I love writing about hope, i know it gets me and many others through the darkest of times. These pieces of writing were written 2/3 years ago but serve as preserving reminders. Keep on trying, no matter what. The world needs unbridled support, love, hope, solidarity. Hope gets me through life and as long as there is support, there is hope - words by Karim Leo ๐ŸŒŽ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿพ #karimleo #poetrycommunity #writer #hopequotes #poetrylovers #speakyourtruth #poetrysociety #love #anxietyrelief #palestinewillbefree #freedom #innerpeace #creativewriting #lover #poetryfoundation #bethehope

A month ago, i voiced my support for Palestinan freedom ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ and was bombarded by participiants who support ongoing genocide, apartheid, greed & corrupt govenments. You should be ashamed of yourself for upholding western imperalism and war crimes. You should be ashamed of yourself for your complicty and silence. You should be ashamed of yourself for standing on the WRONG side of history. Colonial history will always be brutal and horrific. My stance will always be freedom for all people. The whole point of a writer or artist is to draw attention to the chaos. To talk about the chaos. Artists, writers are there to highlight, amplify, nourish, heal, speak up about the chaos. It is not acceptable to come online, DMing me nonsense. Your indifference and ignorance makes you blind. To the horrors and reality of others. It is essential to READ READ BOOKS because this is how we will have a better understanding of how to dismantle the problems that plague our society. Free Congo. Free Sudan. Free Haiti. Free Tigray. Free Palestine.

Uganda Trip. Motherland visit. Remove the dictator. Spiritual rejuvenation. Young nation. Alien mindset. Nature is Power ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฌ โ€œThere are moments of memorable patience in this world, ivory clouds of light. Sun-kissed skin, here in Uganda, a nation fragile yet bliss. Uganda, a nation birthing my parents. My ancestors. My entire lineage. I welcome abundance, the natural beauty of right now. The lively sounds ebbed in trees, I relax, smiling, wearing shorts doing Swimming, Golf, Helicopter rides. Utterly charmed by its unique taste of life. Forgetting the politics, the troubles, this nationโ€™s challenges, the president, the unprecedented difficulties. Living in its miniature bursts of joy. Rest and rejuvenation is a ferocious thing.

A poem on trauma, the intersections & cultural references. A poem on how my grandparents met. February is undeniably โ€œthe love monthโ€ and I came with all the sweeping, inclusive love poems.
