Status Updates From Refractive Africa

'the hedonistic swallowing that is America'

'perhaps I remain curiously condensed as demonized bravery'

'I am speaking of Lingala at its untainted source melodies with refraction | alive with ferocious embellishment | noting as its essence the spontaneous power of dawn | as if the Sun were a subsequent animal knowing its rays to be empowered by anterior forces'

'I am more akin | to the voice that issues from feral numerology | from a lion's compendium | arcane | aggressive'

'it was your power to free enigmas | to revivify the uncanny'

'this being the realm | where the great Sun darkened | where mirages deepened & re-invented themselves'
