Wahidah TambeePaperback, 106 pages9781958652176 What does the feeling of holding your words and thoughts back—stuck and struck in a state of percolation, a plasma state of signific ation—feel like? What does it look like for ambivalence and divergence to converge during the moment of articulation, when all word-opportunities collide at once, like wildly unspooling threads, like heavy raindrops on a glass surface racing from one fork to the next? A collection of visual aberrations that fumble and stammer, and that concede that a closure in expression can never be achieved, the poems of Eke ache towards both painful and opportune expression. Wahidah Tambee graduated with degrees in psychology and creative writing from Nanyang Technological University. Show more
