Zakwato the ungovernable, that's me; and who dares to face me faces a monster.
Exhilarating, alert, and animated by both B彋?oral poetics and modernist zeal, ZAKWATO & LOGL犵OU'S PERIL presents two major linked poems by the late Ivorian poet Azo Vauguy, translated into English for the first time by poet and scholar Todd Fredson. Zakwato evokes the legendary figure of Zakwato, who, having slept through the massacre of his village, marches to the blacksmith to have his eyelids removed so that he might never sleep again. Logl璠ou's Peril recounts what he sees with his now sleepless eyes鎙 vision of a people liberated, awoken, and moving towards a future lit up by their own refulgent song.
Azo Vauguy's psychic insistent overcomes peril and integrates its energy into a wider incessance as mystery. He ignites lingual flame as nonconscripted auditory blazing鎍learing in its waking consciousness as liberty. It seems his voice rises from a vat of ancestral ethers that shapes into disappearance, thereby anointing promulgation into the clarity of what I understand to be lexical invisibility.--Will Alexander, author of The Combustion Cycle
