I started this blog today during a webinar on Harryette Mullen's Sleeping with the Dictionary held
at the University of Lusaka, Zambia, together with my best friend,
Dennis Tembo, in order to provide the students and staff who took part
in the event with a platform for further discussion. I am confident that
this is just the beginning.
Answer.At the end of the webinar, students were asked to contribute a verse (read: post!) to this blog in response to one of the activities I suggested during the two ours we spent together talking about dictionaries, poetry, and the world.
That you are here—that life exists and identity,
That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.
Any comments, suggestions, thoughts are welcome from those who were part of this, or from anyone else who has anything (at all) to share!
