The poems in the first part of this book are set in and/or inspired
by my walking safari in the South Luangwa Valley of Zambia in the
summer of 2010. Some of the poems are whimsical responses to the
guidebook, others taking serious the Mississippi-Africa axis in
race relations. The title poem is a long meditation on that axis.
Two poems are set in Lusaka, the capital city of Zambia, where
friends took us to an AIDS compound (read: Ghetto) and another to
an AIDS hospital. The "other poems" are poems I wrote many years
ago and others that I started but recently finished; others are new
poems, mostly set in and around my life in Mississippi.--Noel Polk
