Canada's role in the world
-Gayathri B. Seetharam
I woke up to golden sunshine and
The Globe and Mail informing me
That Canada under PM Justin Trudeau
Had not won a seat in the UN Security Council
This was a project dear to Mr. Trudeau's heart;

It struck me that goodness prevails but it is not easy for Psyche
To win over her rivals
A reference to Psyche, the Goddess of Soul and Intellect,
Does not exist in Dante's trilogy says my search in the Google Play books;

Psyche, the Goddess of Soul and Intellect and Goodness, does not exist in hell or purgatory or heaven
The first two stand to reason
But perhaps, since the Greek and Roman civilizations did not have heaven
As Christianity does, Dante did not include the goddess in the third part;

There is a reference to blacks and whites on pg 107 of Book 2
And if racism started back from the medieval times,
A certain edge, at times, in beauty began with Cleopatra, a dark beauty,
Who, as the Queen of Nile, had Julius Ceasar and Mark Anthony become her lovers,
This does please me inordinately because I am a mature Canadian beauty (with an equally beautiful figure albeit a small stomach, of 52 years) of Indian origin;

Then there is Semiramis, Queen of Assyria, who, as Dante informed me,
Had legalized incest, says Dante
She was married twice, the second time as a widow of a general, to a King,
And my research says Assyria is Northern Iraq and the lady was a dark complexioned woman;

Since God in a vision or possibly dream, called me Psyche,
And he was Michaelangelo's spitting image with platinum blonde hair,
And not an unattractive face,
I would like to say that I have never had a bad thought unless it is
Related to sexual activity and as God is my witness, I say that back in Nov 2015,
I leched after the newly elected PM of Canada
For he was delectable looking
But the travails of Canada and the world are weighing him down
And he looks weather beaten;

Enough of the sideshow for focussed am I
In my goal to get published and paid and funded for my set of next 50 endeavours on special themes
Could it be possible that Canada is a tad too good and
Resolute in its peacekeeping efforts in the world;

In the Justin Trudeau era, there has been the admission of 25,000 Syrian refugees into Canada
And the installation of the military peacekeeping troops in Mali which had a civil war happening under its own military regime
And the peaceful protest of Tibet occupation by China
And in the distant past, there has been the opposition to British colonial occupation of India
And the apartheid policy of the Africaner government in South Africa
And I even have sculpted busts of Gandhi-Mandela-Dalai Lama as my own delight in this goodness of Canada;

As I read in a publication on the internet by the Progressives pointing out what could be possible loopholes in the Justin Trudeau current term,
Like a lack of proper disabilities insurance in the COVID-19 virus pandemic
And what Trudeau himself has admitted, the existence of individual racism and systemic racism against indigenous people, black people and people of visible minorities
However, Justin Trudeau has not claimed that they are a perfect government
He has said that he and the Liberals have implemented many positive changes in the country of Canada
And has recognised that he has to follow his heart and bring about a society which reflects his own ideals in life
And I will forgive him for having blackened his face three times during his days of youth as a youthful indiscretion.
