Poem|Things You Will Learn When Your Father Leaves

In April of this year I released my third poetry/spoken word album titled Transcendence. Creating the work stretched me both artistically and emotionally making it my most personal work. Transcendence in many ways was me coming undone, a collection of memories and stories and also a meditation in personal healing and reimagination.

This poem titled Things you will learn when your father leaves is one of the poems from the album and making this film for it was a collaborative effort between Nigerian filmmakers Tolu Ajayi and Abiola Sobo produced by Sayo One Sobo with editing post production by the crew at Suss Productions.

I hope you enjoy the work as much as we did making it
