Shackled in Darkness presents through a poetic format some of the burning, contemporary, and existential issues facing humankind.


This poetry collection is a clarion call not only for everyone to become aware of what is happening in the world, but to motivate people to make the necessary mind-set changes that can be the basis for veritable and sustainable sociocultural and ecological transformations.

Shackled in Darkness is divided into seven parts:


  • Presents the concept of development as a series of "myths," based on the underlying voracious self-centeredness of "dominant world powers."
  • Offers through graphic verses the HIV and AIDS scourge, especially in Africa, which is sustained by certain cultural stereotypes.
  • Focuses on the causes of violence surrounding the phenomena of apartheid, xenophobia, ethnic cleansing, genocide, and the Holocaust.
  • "Rape of the Mother" recounts the systematic destruction by humankind of the inestimable resources of Mother Earth, and showing no care for future generations.
  • Recounts "The Twilight of the Indigenous Peoples" about the sorry plight of the excluded, dispossessed, and brutalized Native American Indians, Australian Aborigines, the Khoi-San of South Africa, and the Pygmies of the equatorial rainforests.
  • Describes pseudo-education systems that proliferate and lead to massive unemployment and underemployment, and the frightening unemployability of the products of the former.
  • Highlights the psychosocial dramas and hopes accompanying the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
