Thanks for coming by! This blogspace is an effort, borne out of a student's need for a place for West Indian & West Indian descent poets. A place where we could share our work, read and be inspired and/or informed, from shared or interconnected heritages. As we try to make sense of how we have come to "be so" collectively, individually. Inside and out.
