Caged Skylark [PPB Book Series Season #2]
The voice of the oppressed, the unheard, the resilient. This compilation of stories, poems, and articles emerges from the heart of two communities--Bangsamoro and Palestine-who have lived under the shadow of occupation and conflict, yet continue to rise against all odds. June 2017 marked fifty years since Israel began its military occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip. The world watches, but the international response remains insufficient, often leaving Palestinians to fend for themselves in an ever-shrinking space. As these policies isolate and fragment, they erode the foundation of Palestinian society-ripping apart communities, stifling their economy, and stripping them of their human dignity. The impact is felt deeply, not only in the territory, but in the hearts of the people, as the prolonged occupation breeds hopelessness, frustration, and, at times, violent resistance. Caged Skylark carries these stories forward, giving life to the struggles of those whose voices are often silenced, yet whose resilience cannot be ignored. Through these pages, the reader is invited to witness the powerful force of survival, as both the Bangsamoro and Palestinian people continue to fight for their rights and their place in a world that seeks to overlook them. In these tales, there is no surrender-only a fierce, unyielding hope that one day, the cage will be broken and the skylark will soar free.
Post-Traumatic
A Vietnam veteran finds that 43 years after the war, it's getting harder and harder to control his thoughts, his actions. His memory scarred by the horrible events that occurred in that jungle, what seemed like a century ago. His brain puts his conscience on autopilot, and carries him off to his own personal hell. The stress is getting to him more and more in his older state, like he's dying more and more every time he flashes back to that dense forest, and is feeding the memory that kills him with his decaying state. He's afraid to sleep, afraid of being alone, for fear that it will consume him completely. It sometimes feels that all the possible happiness has left him, that he can no longer create good memories, only amplify the terrifying ones.Complete
