Sobre IBD

This is a collection of original poetry all based in the Caribbean with emphasis on the United States Virgin Islands. This is called Come Lemme Hea’ Yoh Yank Soursap. All are my own creations based on myths, legends, and oral histories. There is a mixture of the comical, the satirical, the social, and the political. The language used is a mixture of Virgin Islands Creole, a kind of hybrid fusion of English with words and syntax, and some works are entirely in so-called standard English. I have included table of contents and paging, even though I know this is likely to change.

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

    Edward V Bonner

Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
