Tentative Seeds of Hope. Life is a Story - story.one

Our world is on fire, and we seem to stumble from one crisis to the next. Wars, patriarchal oppression, uncapped capitalist exploitation, and the constant threat of climate collapse make it hard to believe in a bright future. Yet, amidst the shadows of despair, tentative seeds of hope are sown and cultivated. Each poem within these pages echoes the concerns, fears, and fervent desires of a generation grappling with the looming spectre of a burning planet. From the ache of witnessing vanishing landscapes and species to the dehumanisation and inequality created by capitalistic patriarchy, these verses resonate with raw authenticity, inviting readers to confront the harsh realities of our time with empathy and introspection.This anthology invites readers on a reflective journey - it's a call to arms - reminding us that, ultimately, the fate of this world rests in our collective hands.
