Heard your speaking your "Growing up Misfit" last week, Uche, on TNB (thenervousbreakdown), and loved how you got into it, brought out in your several "dialects", your morphing through several cultures, coping with disparate expectations. Returns me to the *live*-ness that poetry so often was and is now to a certain extent returning. Though we speak poems in our heads as we read them, still it's so stunningly augmented by hearing the poet (I should qualify re poets whose readings are less than we'd want them to be). Thinking of Sappho and Anacreon, I so much yearn for fine poets to accompany their words with musical instruments. Thanks for the reminder to hear you! It's the only time most of us will have that privilege and pleasure.
