Lazaruses & Divases (Heritage Poetry Classics) (Paperback)

A compelling and powerful collection of poems baked in the kiln of Kusema's remarkable pen. The poems are easy to understand yet each of them is compelling, concise and punchy. Kusema elegantly laid out his poems touching on an array of seminal themes including war, love, religion and social justice. Most of the pieces here are light, flexible and adept, sustaining a glittering surface full of comedy and poise even as he maintains an uncompromising stance for the truth. The poet manages to use a variety of techniques to potray the wide chasm between the haves and the have-nots. This collection of poetry is wonderfully inspiring.
