here are two of Somalia's best poems:

help, im starving
muhammad raped my sister
stole my goat
i'm so hungry
oh god, anything

remember high-school?
when you would mix everything
on your tray
and dare your friends
to eat it?
I would eat it
I'm so hungry

these threads are the bestest.
and yet they never seem to lead to the poetry recs in question. a shame.
i for one am keenly interested in the somali poetic works, specifically, those produced by the women of Somalia or perhaps other African nations

>>15594341

They have poetry?

Why are east africans so much better looking (usually) than west africans?

>>15594976
Preference probably. But also Cushites have more Indo European features which are usually regarded as more beautiful than what's present in Bantus

u realize that they dont have an alphabet and that it was an oral language before they were brought over as refugees right? I mean there may be some written in the last 20 years, but probably not, and can you even speak the language? or did you want a translation? if so kys.

Reminder, this is why Guenon moved to Egypt. Egypt was then what Somalia is today. If you want a 20 year old wife of this quality, look no further.
