The Caribbean
Like a glass of rum caught in the gaze of amorous despair.
The night of the neon lights colours blue a sea red with demons of the earth.
The islands alive from overabundant love and too many rapes : the Caribbean.
Africa is faraway, Africa is close.
And all the ancestors of mixed blood in dreams jostle each other.
It will happen to the whole world - whatever the language or passport.
The first part of our look at the Caribbean is now yours :
Cuba, Jamaica, Martinique, Guadaloupe.
The second part will appear in 1993 :
Haiti, Santo Domingo, Puerto Rico, Trinidad and Tobago, Guiana.
And all the talents stream past.
Forgive us, all those who have not found a place on these overcrowded pages.   (editorial extract   J.L. Pivin)
