Sankofa - Adinkra word and symbol meaning "Wisdom in learning from the past and building the future.


" The second time I meant
To last it out and not come back at all.
I rocked shut

As a seashell.
They had to call and call
And pick the worms off me like sticky pearls.

Dying
Is an art, like everything else,
I do it exceptionally well."
Lady Lazarus, Sylvia Plath [obviously, this isn't the entire poem.]
