On the evening of 20th June 2011, I was invited to present poetry at a social evening at Hotel Thule in Windhoek. A very nice venue almost on top of Windhoek with a spectacular view. I was joint by a cultural group and a drummer. The same crew that accompanied me during my first show of The Scars On My Skin: Part 1.
As much as the excitement of performing for an internal delegation of the conference, it was indeed a challenge to perform poetry to an audience that is not ready for poetry. The evening was set and the everything was in place to share my poetry and engage the audience into a poet interaction, but it was just not the right combination of tired minds, wine and vast experiences and diver cultures.
