Our drama group is having 'poetry and prose' evenings on the 10th and 11th of December. For prose I am going to be reading a thing I have put together from some of Kuki Galman's short stories. Very 'African'.
What poem to do has been a bit of a headache, I first tried some stuff out of 'Heart in Exile' and then I really worked hard on 'The Second Coming' by Yeats. My drama teacher said it suited my voice as it is quite a dark poem. But something just didn't feel right and so that is also not the one I will be doing. I have found the right poem - one that has been very very special to me for quite a long time. And especially this year.
Ja, so if you want to know which one it is then come to the drama evening... (Ja Waldo Pelser, JY ook!)
