Benjamin Zephaniah
Very sad to hear that the poet Benjamin Zephaniah has died at the age of 65. I always enjoyed his work and found him very engaging.
A great loss to the world of poetry and literature. |

Re: Benjamin Zephaniah
Always came across as a decent chap. I liked his attitude towards being offered an OBE, saying he has battled against the concept of Empire so how could he have the word attached to his name. Nice one. Shame to lose him so early.
