THE WEIGHT OF SILENCE

This poem, the first in the triptych « Crazy Angry Black Woman », is inspired by Jacques Prévert’s style. It delves into the bittersweet weight of unspoken words—those moments when integrity requires silence, even as emotions press for release. It reflects on the quiet strength of restraint and the unexpected beauty found in holding back.

who are we?

It was 2006 when three friends sat in a varsity computer lab and decided to blog about the twenty-something urbanite experience, from love, friendship and everything else. Since then, it has grown to a platform dedicated to writers who have yet to be read. From explorations of the subconscious through poetry and prose to anecdotes based on the experiences of the post-democratic urbanite. we examine the human condition through the most significant expression of humanity, literature. Under the tag-line “words, life, books”, we run an array of projects, notably, the annual book drive whose benefactors have included community libraries across South Africa; a literary journal showcasing new and upcoming voices of South Africa literature; and workshops for those who wish to improve their writing skills.
