"Für das Verbrennen von Kopftüchern
Für das Zeigen der Haarpracht
Für das Leben aller Frauen
Für das Leben einer jeden Frau
Denn wenn eine Frau stirbt, stirbt ein Universum (mit ihr)."

(Jasmin Karimi - Woman Life Freedom)

I wrote this poem a couple of years ago in solidarity with immigrants everywhere. I am Danish but have made Scotland my home. Not everyone is welcomed by all. But we are all earth inhabitants. 🌍

In hues that dance along the cheek,
A rainbow speaks when words are weak,
Each stripe unveils a hidden tale,
A soul once silenced lifts its veil...

Military on parade,
all for me he said

Hurrah Hurrah!
All hail the king, ...

Turning around,
We feel like we’re falling apart;
Turning around,
Sinking in the vortex, we drown,
Twisting, reeling, lost in the dark,
Over and over, we restart;
Turning around...

What Signs Couldn’t Say

We didn’t come with much to prove —
no megaphone, no practiced line.
Just hearts that needed space to move,
and silence aching for a sign...

There’s nothing there for me
I’ve explored and found it lacking
The constant peace of mind
And the occasional euphoria
That evaded me in the past

I’m not going back...
