- W4386777744 abstract "Touki bouki, 1973 dir. Djibril Diop Mambéty, and: Atlantics, 2019 dir. Mati Diop Robert Fernandez (bio) Touki bouki, 1973 dir. Djibril Diop Mambéty The blood jet, a gold belt from Hermès. Poetry is the blood jet breaking the sound barrier high in the African sky. A hyena is male and female. We steal. What you don't see is that we are after beauty like waves crashing on rocks. Like the visible, a thin film, draining over sound. Like the future drifting over the present and the past crackling like life. The world takes what it wants; we take what we can. The past sucks like the tide, the jealous tongues of the dead. The future is the prerogative of the young, Spirit bidding for the unthinkable. A griot tells a story that collapses time, resurrects the dead, extracts the lead. This is a poem. This is a journey. An adventure. A chance to be free. [End Page 145] Atlantics, 2019 dir. Mati Diop At the speed of light, night. At the speed of light, nothing. Light meats nothing. Night meets pain. I haven't yet been rite. Haven't yet been nothing. I have a debt of pain. I haven't yet been paid. I haven't been made right. I have a wright to pain. I'm some ware. I'm nowhere. I'm sum one. Some won. The sea dances in the sun. The sun dances on the rocks. The see walks across the sea. Who wins? Get him. Pay me. Pay hymn. The sea washed me of my sins. My art is to return. The wrinkled sea, like milk skin, holds my steps. I step down molten rock into the heart's wet depths. I return to where you are. My salt is on your skin. I can begin again. End begets again.
