I started reading @carlterver's Glory to the Sky last night and I can't believe that all my mind is capable of doing today is contemplating upon the cosmos.

See ehm, @akefestival is global, but the way @Kanopoetryfest "shook its small nyash," the mighty Aké would have to play a catch-up to trump it as the most exciting literary event in Nigeria this year. Those who were there will understand me.
