This poem is written for and dedicated to: My Beloved Late Father, Minous Talbert.


It waved its hand in your direction,
And sadly you closed your eyes in death.
I stood there quietly and helplessly
As I watched my beloved slip away as
I wept.

Tears fell from my eyes, and a great
Darkness covered my heart. In words
I found no comfort, in tears I felt
No relief. My life without you is
Hollowed with only pain and grief.

But, Jesus left me a promise, in the
Resurrection I shall find a release.
He died so that one day my eyes shall
Fill with pleasure and my heart will
Fill with glee.

He will call you back to me!
And death will set you free!

Next Arrivals by Robin Ouzman Hislop

Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
