Guest Poet for August 2006

 

“My poetry comes from anger - or nothing.

I also mean love. What drives me is rage

over racism, sexism, the capitalist imperium,

and just the sheer stupidity of inhumanity.

But I also yearn for, mourn, the lost beauty

of the world of my childhood  - all that sprightly

optimism and sparkling wit of 1960-68,

from King & Kennedy to Trudeau & Malcolm X. ”

- George Elliott Clarke
