Retired teacher, poet (working on it), reader, animal lover, union thug forever.

I wrote this over the last couple of days. Maybe I should have called it Independence Day.

I read this for the music in it, then reread it for the meaning.

A poem by Wole Soyinka, Nigerian Nobel Prize winner.

The poem that keeps coming to my mind is Yeats’ The Second Coming, but I wanted to read something that had no connection to what’s upsetting me each day.
I love reading Soyinka’s work.
