A collection of random poems, rooted from either very deep emotions or just a random writing prompt, or both. Updated when inspiration strikes. Enjoy!

Another hour wasted. Another task undone.

I ruin and spoil everything in my own mind.

Please read the part 1 before reading this.

🐒✨ Twenty-Four-year-old Kanna June, an environmental science student researching Peninsula ecosystem health, discovers that baboon troops across the Western Cape are conducting sophisticated environmental monitoring that human systems have failed to detect. When her mobile glitches during research at Boulders Beach, she uncovers coordinated inter-troop communication revealing systematic contamination assessment that challenges everything primatology understands about territorial behaviour. As wealthy Simon's Town residents mobilise for weekend removal operations targeting 4 troops, 2 southern and 2 northern, Kanna joins the Peninsula Collective - a research network integrating traditional ecological knowledge with contemporary environmental science. Racing against municipal elimination schedules, they must document that baboon environmental intelligence provides crucial ecosystem health data that conservation policy cannot afford to lose. Set against Cape Town's urban wildlife management crisis, this ecological fiction explores collaborative conservation through interdisciplinary research that validates traditional knowledge without appropriation, demonstrating that environmental protection serves human interests through animal intelligence recognition rather than charismatic species appeal. #EcologicalEpistemologicalFiction #SpeculativeFiction #EcoTechFiction #EnvironmentalSpeculativeFiction #MagicalRealism #IndigenousWisdom #BaboonConservation #DigitalShamanism #QuantumCommunication #SouthAfrica #InterspeciesConnection #AlgorhythmicManipulation

#WattpadShortys2025 first poetry submission. This prose poem reflects on the precarious existence of the Cape Peninsula baboons, challenging official narratives that reduce them to mere statistics. It highlights the deep connection between the baboons, the land, and local heritage, exposing how bureaucratic "management" masks ongoing population decline and ecological erasure. Through rich imagery and emotional resonance, the poem mourns loss, calls out the dismissal of dedicated conservationists, and confronts human responsibility for environmental degradation. Ultimately, it raises profound questions about memory, truth, and the urgency of bearing witness to protect not only the baboons but the shared natural legacy they represent.

To you, it's just about the race. To me, it's just about us two.
