Abstract: Tree of Existential Threats is a reflective poem that portrays humanity’s fragile existence through the metaphor of a vast, interconnected tree. Each branch symbolizes a different existential danger, ranging from environmental collapse and technological overreach to social discord and moral decline, while the roots represent the deep-seated causes embedded in human actions and choices. The poem weaves together imagery of growth and decay, suggesting that the same forces that sustain life can also lead to its destruction. It invites readers to confront the complexity of global risks and consider the collective responsibility essential for survival, existence, or success.

Constructive or destructive uses of modern technology depend on collective human spinal
Protecting our community from nature loss, an existential threat to global stability/security

Long-term strategy of deliberate economic/social integration with all in the territory piece
Penetration of peace through greater ideological cohesion with significant global implications
