Along the Shores of Melancholia, a young girl cries out to the world why we care so little about this planet which is our only home. “Where are you, World?” is a poignant poem inspired by climate activist Ilyess El Kortbi that serves as a lament for the Earth, here personified as a suffering mother. In the wake of war and environmental crises, 16-year-old Ally's poem explores the deep emotional connection between the narrator and the planet we call home.
