Sadness… profound sadness…
The kind that seeps
Into every thought
And penetrates
Throughout one’s soul,
Leaving all life’s beauty
Shattered under the incessant weight
Of hopelessness in its harsh acuity!

“All Greece hates the still eyes in the white face…” – H.D., "Helen" (1924)

H.D.’s ‘Helen’ reimagines her not as a seductress but as a scapegoat. Blamed for war, stripped of agency, and loathed for existing, her story exposes timeless misogyny. Women often bear the weight of men’s actions. 🌿

Poetry captures history’s heartbeat—love, loss, and resistance woven into words. From Brecht’s exile verses to Puritan laments, it mirrors humanity’s struggles and triumphs. I'll share timeless poems alongside my own to explore how art shapes history. Let’s bridge past and present together. 🌹

Too often, leaders become drunk on power, consumed by arrogance, ego, & entitlement. Blind to the realities of those they serve, fueling self-interest over collective good. History shows unchecked hubris destabilizes nations & devastates lives. Leadership without humility is a danger! #DrunkOnPower
