Captures (Poems of Compassion)
£3.99
By Ali Horriyat
We ate together until his bowl was empty
Then he lowered his eyes and said
“I long to go home”
Each of these poems is a capture—a moment that stopped me, demanded I look closer, and would not let me walk away unchanged. They are not abstractions; they are truths, raw and immediate.
But what matters most is not my act of writing. It is your act of reading. When a line unsettles you, when a story stirs compassion, do not leave it on the page. Let it spill outward. Let it shape how you see, how you act, how you live.
Compassion unexpressed is wasted. Compassion enacted is Compassiviste.
All proceeds of Ali Horriyat’s books go towards Compassiviste Foundation, funding compassionate action for a harmonious future.
