91. Smile for the camera because the present is here
by Kea Campbell
Smile for the camera because the present is here.
Right now is forever, so look neither forward nor rear.
If you are as you were, looking back one whole year,
Did you even progress, or is it just evidently unclear?
Timestamps are great, and I recommend observations at a fiscal stretch.
Start now and not later, or future you might look back with invidiousness.
Yes, set goals and expectations to mark your achievements,

My Earthly Heart - Alexis karpouzos
by alexis karpouzos
Love, aren’t you the one who lights soul’s fire?
My earthly heart gets cold
but I sustain the shivers boldly.
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys
and shores of universal life
and play with pebbles of destiny.
Messages
by Adam Radke
What happens if nobody reads this
This message, this articulation of thoughts
I’ll only have myself to thank
For me I’ll write then
This won’t be so vague
I’ll be concise
It’ll be so opaque
People aren’t nice
If you want to teach

To My Dear Helen
by Somali Mukherjee
You began to write the history of your life
With a kind of fear;
I know not why you are so great;
O, Helen, to me, you are so dear.
You're talented, you're esteemed;
How enchanting your fantasy is!
Your voice is always buzzing in my heart,
Just like the honey-seeker bees.

The Indomitable Human Spirit
by Thomas Gallagher
We have enslaved lightning
And thunder’s roar, defeat it admits
We have survived death’s pain
And create life with wits
For some, life is a prison
Yet they reach for freedom through the slits
Us on this beautiful rock

Two parts of a coin
by Sworup Ghimire
I know this part of a coin
Somewhere from my distant past
All dusted and wasted as it could every have,
The part of coin

Light Up - a voicemail
by Adelana Victor
Hey, it's Victor here, calling in to check on you.
In case no one has whispered this to you today,
let me be the voice to tell you
You're beautiful
More beautiful than the Milky Way.
You're strong
Stronger than anything that ever poses to be an obstacle on your way
You're powerful
More powerful than you can ever imagine.

Learning Positive Vibes
by Somali Mukherjee
The clock strikes four;
I’m never like before;
I’ve learnt to take life’s drink
Up to the lees from the brink;
Multiple layers of joy
