This is after
with a renewed perspective
a different thought of a narrative
linked
throughout history
his story
Yinka Shonibare CBE
Suspended States - Art Exhibition
at the Serpentine,
Hyde Park,
London
and it's free
you'll see beauty
from a perspective
a touch of Africa
India
And Europe
a touch, you'd never have thought
a library to die for
telling the history
in beautiful colour - of the tragedies of war
yet there's a space for peace
as only
the peaceful know
war is a losing game
only fools indulge in
take a look for yourself
you'll leave feeling inspired
go look through history books
with an African point of view
wrapped in batik
a little Dutch flair
enter
the Library of War
leave
rejuvenated
having weaved your path to peace
