I AM AFRICA
jarcher54 said:

My interests in Africa began when I discovered Christopher Obigbo\'s poetry and learned of his death in the Biafran War in Nigeria in the late 1960\'s The continent\'s literature is so rich, and the history so complex, that I have only touched the surface in the years since. You are about the age he had reached when he died in battle. Your tribute to and hopes for your continent strike a deep chord in my heart.

As Parisab above, plus the hope that Africa is not beset by fresh colonialism. Is it not ripe for fresh exploitation?
Great Write.

Goodbye for Now
Towertoday said:

I like how this poem alluded to an emotion of \"if you love her, let her go\" but doesn\'t precisely state what or who this complexity is between. That is an aspect I admire because now it can be interpreted in many ways and relate to all kinds of people. Good Job!
