CAN YOU SEE THE LIGHT By Nour-eddine Aboudihaj

Can you see the light in this pandemic? That sent smart people in buying panic It would have been comic if it was not so tragic

That in this fight or flight mood, Intelligent human beings lose their cool and all logic

Their worry and fear can simply lead them to the mental clinic

For years on end they kept telling us now

The only way is the survival of the fittest!!!?

This theory has been proved to be the craziest

As it compares the great human potential

To that of a mere helpless animal

We are supposed to kill each other in this jungle

In that this world in which we are living nothing is fair

So what, Why should WE care?

A fair assumption many in the recent past could dare

The truth is that our universe is created with much love and a lot of compassion

What makes it full of goodness, beauty and passion!

How we choose to live in our planet Depends only on our will-power, actions and desires

What makes us thrive is nothing but our strive

Doing things that are good is our oxygen and food

Less than that is asphyxia and anorexia It will finish us all for having a mere mortal goal

Whereas we could live up to our higher self, our life purpose and mission

Whereas we could rise up to our true role

That of been great spiritual beings and transform our fate

By having a leap of faith

Having faith in our self-actualisation Rather than In our mere flesh , physical preservation and recreation

By acting and not only joining the conversation

But a sure start to the real emancipation and full engagement and active participation

Establishing a Joint Corona recovery built on collaboration

Of all tribes and every nation making the declaration

That no more wealth based on bombshell and stealth

That our health is not shares on Wall Street dealt

Enough of the information overload Without the wisdom to choose the everlasting road

Enough of the of the tyranny economy and truancy of market rule

Without a care for the human life We became less than animals without a soul

Was Falstaff to Shakespeare a Fool? Was life before Corona good or foul? I have seen it all before

Now it is not time of extremes, to fall to wither and die

In the toxic environment to lay

No, no no the virus we can defy

No no no our humanity and our rights to a better world

More loving, more wonderful, more beautiful

Whoever will dare mankind to deny Opportunities upon us to nurture our old, sick and pregnant women

Our duties are to live in harmony with nature

Reject and cast away the Throw- away culture

In the Corona age it made us aware We are all connected and we all care Our peace and blessings we can all share

It gives us all a second chance

With our families and friends to be happy again

To dance, and I for one I love the new trance,

It made us aware that another way, a better path is possible

Which just weeks ago we thought unbelievable

February 2020 is new awakening March 2020 is the reckoning Everything is standing still

The rat- race is stopped

We got back our self-awareness

It is now Time for our coming together We finally find the ingredients of our greatness

Happiness is our own hands

Our bright future is our in compassionate togetherness.
