KOFI FOSU FORSON for PLAYspace Volume 1

The eminent yet amorphous presence of Kofi Fosu Forson in our pages is represented by "Fear and Love Inside The Black Cloak: Hidden Measures of Default/Encumbering Beauty" which emerges as if fully formed from the poet’s mouth like white hot coals but light as soap bubbles lingering in a breeze. When I first heard Kofi read it was in my own living room, to a bunch of us waiting for the festivities to start on New Year’s Eve. He started the year off right with something from deep within him that went directly to the same place in each of us. May his words touch you as well.
