The speaker roams across three continents, pausing in Mill Road cemetery and Jesus Green in Cambridge, UK; at Paddington Station and Trafalgar Square; at Whitney Plantation and Coney Island, his quest underwritten by the 'vacant sadness of lagos' and troubled by religious authorities, colonial legacies, and the sharp pains of a world at once eroticised and economised, corporate and corporeal. Languages, forms and poetic traditions are tested for their relational capacities as the writing assembles itself around absences that could 'respeak me into presence'. - Dr. kitt price Senior Lecturer in English Queen Mary University of London, London, UK locomotifs and other songs is a ride fused with several voices - Osundare, Ekwuazi, Okinba Launko, et al-seeking several ends in a continuous meditation. It is a journey of several miles told in rhythm without punctuations. - Su'eddie Vershima Agema Author, Bring Our Casket Home: Tales One Shouldn't Tell and Winner ANA Prize for Poetry, 2014.
