Precious Okoyomon, Earthseed

Ajebota is the confessions of little bleeding lamb, babbling milk out of her wound, still reaching for the warmth of the sun. Ajebota is Precious Okoyomon's debut chap and is completely representative of her unique writing style. Okoyomon's poems are sexual, healthy, and full; or moreso an exploration of what it means to be all of these things. Precious Okoyomon's poetry is an exploration of both the body and pure emotion.
