- Go to warrior's daughter
Re: Shaka
wow. I am not sure I understood all of which you said. I feel it is just my self expression coming through. for this poem I had met someone who's name meant warrior's daughter and was wondering how you would impress a warrior enough for him to give you his daughter's hand. so I chosee Shaka Zulu who is in my opinion the greatest warrior of all. but your reply facinates me and I am wondering if you may explain it further

Shaka
When I started was anticipating various realities, and the unusual of a daughter. As I read, there was a lot of interesting imagry (but nothing I can recollect), and as I get into the middle, I got completely lost. So I dropped down to last lines and tried to read up, which didn't help either. My impression is that this work does not have to do with its words, but the density of a mask applied over something more fluid--as if to yield a plaster cast of that which is already fleeting. I get this feeling that you know more about the 3rd dimension in painting, and the 4th in sculpture. So, if I were to look at it this way, you have a wonderful cast. What do you think? Is this an original approach to poety? I'm all ears.
