Poignantly filled with abstractrealism, where religion is ¿unquestioned and theestablishment - church, assumes both a ¿political and cultural context. ¿If God Was a Poet, is an anthology thatcaptures the heart and mind ¿of faith in all its contested forms. Sibanda escapes patriotic ¿sloganeering, by putting politicalverse and organic expectations of ¿modernfreedom in its correct place of malleability. He captures the¿early unconformities of any formof independence, national or ¿personal,and the nostalgic patriotism, that fears to rise above ¿futile banal schisms in many a new homeland. Thesepoems are provocatively quirky and resonate with today's world¿of seething ideals on what itmeans to be free, in a world where ¿freedomis often won.
