ɪ-ᴀғʀɪᴋᴀ ᴇɴɢᴀᴘʜᴇɴᴅᴜʟᴇᴋɪ - intangible Africa

This piece was on my agenda for a long time. It feels right to publish this today, 30 years after the release of Nelson Mandela. Fighting for freedom, toleration and non-racialism, Mandela initiated the era of the modern Africa. His belief in a peaceful shift of oppressing structures is outstanding. 

Africa is probably the most diverse and yet underrated continent on earth. This did not make it easy for me to put this set together. I really wanted to do justice to what the continent deserved. On the other hand I knew that one cannot capture all the diversity of this nation in one set. This gave me the opportunity to create my own story. Here it is. Fresh diverse crazy.

ɪ-ᴀғʀɪᴋᴀ ᴇɴɢᴀᴘʜᴇɴᴅᴜʟᴇᴋɪ

s u r f

it was only when i suddenly was
torn out of my dream at the end that
i realized that i flew away in the meantime.
up to the peaks of high mountains,
where birds of prey stood in the wind
with a lamenting cry
and streams gurgled playfully.
that's how i felt when i heard it.
and that's how it happens to me
again and again when i hear it:
at the beginning i listen very carefully,
almost strained and try to concentrate
in order to perceive details and then
suddenly i feel like i'm gone
and only come back to consciousness
at the last notes
with memories of a journey.
i like it.
