skulls: love the first stanza. meaning of the last stanza is good, but something about the way it's worded/line breaks feels awkward to me. wish i knew a little more about igbo traditions. i know a decent amount about the kola nut rituals, but that's it.
exercise: use of repetition = ♥. i like the second to last stanza a lot, especially "set your teeth harder".
i suppose i should post all the scraps i've been hoarding at some point.... i just don't have anything right now that could properly be called a "completed" poem. -_-
