ZEPHANIAH

Tras estudiar a poetas como Ted Hughes, Sylvia Plath o Geoffrey Hill, encontrar a Benjamin Zephaniah fue como unas pequeñas vacaciones. Si alguien no ha visitado su página, vale la pena dedicarle unos minutos: http://www.benjaminzephaniah.com/content/index.php
O para pasar un buen rato garantizado, escucharle en directo recitando ‘Talking Turkeys’:

"I used to think nurses
were women
I used to think policemen
were men
I used to think poets
were boring
Until I became one of them."

From Talking Turkeys, Benjamin Zephaniah
