Humanity is a work in progress, always striving for self-actualisation and a better future. We want to live in a healthier, happier, and safer world. Yet today, we face competition, confusion, and conflict instead of cooperation, clarity, and harmony. Climate change and its ecological damage are a clear warning.
Ndaba Sibanda, a poet from Zimbabwe, captures this vividly. In Eastern and Southern Africa, the effects of climate change are already evident: droughts, biodiversity loss, pest outbreaks, rising malaria cases, and displacement.
If Africa is highly vulnerable, are wealthier nations truly committed to climate justice? Will they follow through on promises of financial support and fair compensation?
Through powerful poetry, Sibanda challenges us to face reality with honesty, reflection, and a will to renew.

This is a powerful composition that vividly laments the destruction of the natural environment which has led to literally a whole host of consequences.

The poet’s knack to see what is wrong in our modern world is just at a level that cannot be paralleled. He enriches and energises his work with the help of literary devices.
