Freedom As It Happens is a quasi-biographical collection of poems and shorts of Tshombe Sekou; it is a journey into the past and present, it is the observation of the obvious and not so obvious, and the struggle of life expressed through the poetics of Tshombe. These poems not only invite you into his world, but begin to invite you into your own world to discover and uncover something long missed or forgotten. Tshombe challenges the senses and inquires the reader to draw conclusions of their own. Each poem is a winding staircase, a poem wrapped in a poem, with divergent pathways to discovery. This is Tshombe's first published book after ten years of writing and publishing poetry in audio format.
