    I Come in Peace, Take Me to your Leader

    by Ayat Khidir Twenty two years old and I still somehow managed to be the new kid in class, Mondays approaching got to whip me up something fast, Want to make me an impression here, So maybe I should take about relatable things like emotions Happiness, sadness and fear.

    Depleted

    by Ethar Eltinay Depleted.. Like branches subsequent to facing a Storm.. Post-traumatic.. Eyes fixated on its, Crestfallen Leaves.. Shoulders Bent, from Strength.. Withholding its Core..

    The Platonic Pledge

    by Maabad Said I’ve got a petty poet’s pretty pretentious, Poetic poems and plenty of poetry to tell, Words overturning words, overturning Worlds Gushing in Spasmodic Hurls Rushing Luscious Lyrics of Metaphysics Raging Rhymes of Reason and Simple Symbolistic Sonnets Still, I stand distilled, unwilling as to pause it Flushing as I turn, the Vocalistic…

    Good Morning, Goodbye

    by Lameese Badr  We straightened our creases and Squinted our eyes As the sun dawned on us. A reminder that this was bound to end Regardless of all the ways we tried to stall.

    To The leaver in The Mirror

    Don’t leave me Believe me The satisfaction you’re after won’t be there..
