Poems featured in the episode:
GREEN AFRICA

Horst Wolff

Africa, you catch our eyes

Waking in your sudden bloom

Of giant flowers, rainbow coloured

Generous with limb and life,

You are eternal in your trees

Which crowd, luxuriate and rot;

Returning to return.

Your white-crowned mountain call us up

Your slopes of promise where as eagles

We look down your spread of green

and the metal bodies of your rivers

Bright with points of splintered light.

Dreaming you, where’er I go

I see Ancestors by their fires

Forming worlds from tales and fables.
THE SEA EATS OUR LANDS
Kwesi Brew

Here stood our ancestral home:

The crumbling wall marks the spot.

Here a sheep was led to slaughter

To appease the gods and atone

For faults which our destiny

Has blossomed into crimes.

There my cursed father once stood

And shouted at us, his children.

To come back from our play

To our evening meal and sleep.

The clouds are thickening in the red sky

And night had charmed

A black power into the pounding waves.

Here once lay Keta.

Now her golden girls

Erode into the arms

Of strange towns.
