My best English read, I would say was `Late Nights on Air`, and my favourite French piece was definitely « Les hirondelles de Kaboul ». And, of course, the stories I transcribe related to human rights and wrongs always touch me in a profound way...

Le départ
Quelle est la couleur de mes jours, tu me demande ? Depuis que tu es
parti ils sont sans couleur... celle des foins séchés au soleil sévère, du fourrage pour le bétail à l'odeur de la terre moisie - oui, c'est ça :
mes jours ensevelis, ils attendent que tu vienne les déterrer et leur donner
de la couleur aussi vif que le soleil rose-orange qui se couche sur le champ
d'aôut.

Why do some birds walk?
What makes C.R. Avery an essential artist is that he is irreplaceable . He is more than poet or beat boxer, more than writer or singer or piano man, more than visual artist; he is all of these things, and when he brings it together, his shared vision is one I would feel lesser for missing out on... I have my ticket for this Saturday and my boots have been spit-shined, so I'm ready for Avery's latest adventure!

The Barrens
In the barrens
Nothing grows
But silence.
Roots can't find
Their way
Through crusted
earth,
Skin so thinned
It's thick with
armour -
Spring buds locked
beneath
The invisible,
impassable,
Where no sun or rain
Can find them.
The arctic tundra,
Quiet, desolate,
beautifully barren.
My womb is barren
Also, where In the
dark
things grow
unreserved.
Fighting their way
through
Thick, obstinate
walls with
Corkscrew
determination.
No
seeds no fish no buds
It mothers and feeds
And
imagines beauty.

The Empire
To Exterminate
exterminare
expel
armenians led to the desert
to die
100 years
ago now
no one
came no one stopped it
1.5 million
tortured
raped
starved finally to rest
in their blood and excrement waiting
for death asking
why?
it was a quiet
little genocide
one hundred
years to remember
one hundred
years to forgot
