South AFrica: the perfect poem · Global Voices
Sokari Ekine

South African poet, The Imperfect Poet comes out of two months of hibernation….reflecting on life, love and the purpose of breathing. Not necessarily the best state to exist in but it's been working for me. I believe everyone should have the odd moment of self-pity to put life into perspective and give one a ditch to crawl out of… if you don't fall, how are you going to get up? Twisted logic, I guess, but it helps me breathe”
