The Imagine Nation



      When asked where I am from

    I no longer mention my country

      by name because people will

      soon enough realise that my

     accent is the noun, not a verb.


       I come from a place where

  daydreams are never interrupted

by darkness because it’s a marriage

of preoccupation with nonconformity.


Curiosity gives an illusion of genius,

insight and resourcefulness are the

true collaborators of artistic invention.


   Panache cannot be consumed.
