Flower Crowns Reign

The soul is not green paper.
The heart is not code.
Zeroes and ones cannot
ever replace the human
bleeding words on the page.

Throughout human history, literature has been a sanctuary for the unheard and a mirror of reality. Writers wield pens as torches that scatter the shadows of oppression, enabling the silenced people to once again speak for themselves.

This collection encapsulates the resilient spirit of one writer in an age that prioritizes profit and algorithms over art and storytelling. The poet champions social justice through an ancestral lens and reclaims her power. Then she pays homage to true artists while celebrating the intersection of her spirituality and her writing.

If you are a young writer, keep going. Speak yourself. Exist out loud. Your words are your triumph, so wield your torch.
