I have not spoken for the past eight years. it has been eight years of drowning. The Foreigners fed on our flesh , and non of us who survived the flood could remember the hate that led us here. It started beautifully and later turned into a terrifying dream. Salt water swept our fortune away, and our voices where lost. We were gone, yet no one bordered to ask about us or investigate into the past. We survived with the help of loneliness because we were wrongly informed about the promise land. A tale of a land made of gold was only meant for children, and we never knew that slavery awaits us to exploit our bones.
A journey to the promise land turns out to be a mystery
The anthology, A Letter to the Grave, chronicles out everyday topics in our present colony - Nigeria. It is a nexus of thoughts and imageries that intertwine to give a cinematic portrait of people’s suffering that has transmogrified into the flooding plights of a nation. The poet is quite cunny in his choice of words, however, very sarcastic! The sarcastic cynicism of the writer can only but provoke the reader to sigh for sorrow. He spent his time to weave pictures so apt, touchy and sorrowfully frustrating. The twist of words, though simple, have put together different topics to literally describe the writer’s dismay, and mixtures of “these are the triangular-shaped problems of our dear country”. The words describe topics that lay superfluously unattended in the layers of our society: desperation for wealth, indifference of our metaphoric representatives in government, gnashing writhe of poverty, death and its cold hands, etcetera
