Poetry and art go hand in hand; in fact, a poem is just art in the written form.
Ben James: The Raw Sound of Guyana’s Unfiltered Indie Voice
Ben James (Reuben Ally), a musician from Guyana, is not interested in perfection, he is committed to honesty. With a sound he describes as “messy,” his music prioritizes feeling over flawless production. In an era where over-polished tracks dominate, Ben’s approach is refreshingly unfiltered: he sings what he feels in the moment, letting raw emotion guide his art. “I hate spending hours on writing,” he admits. “If I can’t say what I want to say, I probably should just wait until I’m able to spit it out.”

It Speaks Words
I waited on a bench for you in the rain Just so I could hear you call my name Even if it was just an echo That the droplets reverberated to me I knew you would never meet me there But my heart told me it was meant to be The aching started when you were near So I wasn't surprised that the tears didn't stop when you made your leave Freezing alone in my bed Sweat beading from my pits I asked my heart why she said I should wait for an empty promise

Poem for the last days
After it was all done, we saw lights bolting out of his head, and we finally thanked the sacred wizard. Roman Rohan, this is the place where we pretend to believe in souls and magic. Caligula amidst the destruction, philosophers are called to make sense of our steps.
