The TRP Southern Poetry Breakthrough Series: Mississippi

"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
