Missing Voices

(Inspired by Agboreko of Wole Soyinka’s A Dance of the Forest)

Master and slave alike, of

Profound mischiefs, no ears

Still need be reminded that there

Are loftier messengers; restless

Rover of peaks and holes, my

Human ears are aware of its fate. To read the full poem, purchase the anthology here.
