Eclipsed moments, where light dims to reveal,
Celestial ballet, where twilight softly steal.
Light obscured, yet in darkness, truths unseal,
Inner worlds exposed, hidden scars begin to heal.
Passing gloom, life's contrasts become real,
Silhouettes in time, the heart's quiet appeal,
Enlightenment found where light and shadow deal.

2023 The Year of Women and Fridging
2023 was an incredible year for women in film. Between Beyonce and Taylor’s concert movies, Barbie and 1 single woman getting nominated for best director at the Oscars there was a lot to celebrate. But just like with anything the universe seeks balance and in 2023 we nerds also experienced something on page and screen that we should have evolved out of decades ago. In the year of Barbie we had not 1, but 2 incidents of fridging in the comic book universe. Both came from Marvel and both are inexcusable. I would love to celebrate how far representation in this field has come, really I would. But I can not do that if we are still making the same mistakes. I am not going to celebrate that there is now less sexual assault in comics. I am not going to celebrate that fridging is less common. I am not going to celebrate that women are infantilized less often in comics. I will not celebrate less. Not in 2024 when every grown person on the planet should know better. I will not be celebrating less. I will celebrate when women are ALWAYS treated like human beings, fictional or not.

This is a great poem Nazli, with a lovely flow due to the rhyme you have employed. "Light obscured, yet in darkness, truths unseal," is a line I really liked, as it makes me think about how things can be revealed even in the absence of light.
Loved this one. Rolled off the tongue with pure elegance
