Zohra Opoku
(Altdobern, former GDR, 1976 -)
'Re, cry out, let your heart be pleased by your beautiful truth of this day. Enter from the under-sky, go forth from the East (you) whom the elders and the ancestors worship. Make your paths pleasant for me, broaden your roads for me (so that) I may cross the earth in the manner of (crossing) the sky, your sunlight upon me.
