*Adhiambo* Gabriel Okara Nigerian poet- 1957? I hear many voices like it's said a madman hears; I hear trees talking like it's said a medicine man hears. Maybe I'm a madman, M'be I'm a medicine man. Maybe I'm mad, for the voices are luring me, urging me from the midnight moon and the silence of my desk to walk on wave crest across the sea. Maybe I'm a medicine man hearing talking saps, seeing behind tress; but who's lost his powers of invocation. But the voices and the trees are now name-spelling and one figure silence-etched across the moonface is walking, stepping over continents and seas. and I raised my hand- my trembling hand, gripping my heart as handkerchief and waved and waved--and waved-- but she turned her eyes away.
