Alguns Poemas

Bessie Head foi uma escritora nascida em Pietermaritzburg, África do Sul, a 6 de julho de 1936, mas que emigrou para Botsuana em 1964 e é hoje considerada a mais influente escritora botsuanesa do pós-guerra, onde se naturalizou. É conhecida pelos romances When Rain Clouds Gather (1968), Maru (1971), e A Question of Power (1973), e ainda pela coletânea de contos The Collector of Treasures and Other Botswana Village Tales (1977). A escritora morreu, aos 48 anos, por complicações advindas da hepatite, a 17 de abril de 1986.
 
 Conhecida como prosadora, ao morrer havia publicado um único poema, o famoso "Things I don´t like", ainda na África do Sul. Mas, desde sua morte, inéditos vêm sendo descobertos, como o romance The Cardinals (1996), e ainda uma série de poemas jamais publicados, coligidos no volume Recovered Early Poems of Bessie Head. Dele extraímos o poema abaixo, e o apresentamos junto do famoso "Things I don´t like."
