I
N U A M.
E L L A M S
Inua Ellams
is a writer with a style as influenced by Shakespeare and Keats as it is
by MosDef and Talib Kweli. His first love was graphic art; the first time
he toyed with a pen, he immediately fell in love with the magic line that
grew from the point that touched the paper.
He
started writing in late 2002, the following year, he caught a glimpse of a
poet performing on HBO’s “Real Sex” series and decided there and
then to get up and start performing. He says it wasn’t the naked lady
dancing erotically in a bath tub behind her that spurred him on; He swears
this to be true.
A
web-search of “Poetry” led him to his first ever open-mic performance,
where after a short display of word art, two months later was invited for
his first feature show. To date He has performed at a long list of venues
including: the Route 343 Bus, the National Tate Gallery, at The Albany
Theatre in Deptford, Deal Real Records, The Drum (Birmingham), The Royal
Academy of Dramatic Arts, The Tobacco Factory Bristol, The Glastonbury
Music and Latitude Festival, and at distinguished street corners across
the world.
Concerning
liquids, He believes in aPple jUice, likes his coffee absent and claims to
conjure Krystal out of rain puddles. Concerning solids, He believes in
green apples, likes his steak well done, and claims to have a desk carved
of brimstone and beautiful. Concerning life, he believes it is the
greatest symphony of all, that people all freestyle and adlib to it, but
once in a while, we have to conform to the beat. Within the symphony are
significant riffs like Ghandi or King- they give kudos to the great
concert.

Answering Machine
At the moment
I am merely occupied
eleventeen days from now
I may be
the uncorked force of an expired oak leaf
left to decompose between the stalled
and stilled hips of a pink vision
last seen in pursuit of a stage.
I may be the enraged
dream, buried
head first in the 2005th beam to hit starlight
I be the chronicles of a
kite cut free
foretold to die on five marineian clefts
battered by blue breaths nine millimeters left
of a life, havoc free
as far as the wind knows
I be that vermillion dusted hero
million man marching in Nigerian deserts
under crescent moons with a fist thrown up
smoked on the misty fumes of Bacardi
flavored incenses sticks that burn
only in organized formation
but at the moment,
I am merely occupied.
so leave me a message
after the tone
and I will get back to you.
