For me. You know, of all my poems that could have been chosen, it it means that extra step, that it was Auntie. Because it’s about, you know, my aunt who’s one of the greatest loves of my life. She was also a teacher, and she loved this poem. She would go around Harare and Zimbabwe to all of her friends. Like, “have you seen this poem? That’s about me? Have you seen this poem?” And so to know that it has this life beyond me and that that it’s now being read by so many of you, it is genuinely the biggest honour. I say that sincerely.
