[Mihalic] TP poetry

[Robin Hide]

For expressive, written tok pisin, its well worth scanning recent poetry 
written in TP.
Two examples:

Winduo, Steven Edmund. 2000. Hembemba: Rivers of the Forest. Suva, Fiji : 
Papua New Guinea, Institute of Pacific Studies, University of the South 
Pacific ; Language and Literature Department, University of Papua New 
Guinea, 124 p.

The fourth section of the book includes 15 poems in tok pisin (with english 
translations),  pp. 77-110.

And in the recent special issue of the Australian literary journal, 
Meanjin,  Meanjin on PNG (2003, Vol. 62,  No.3, edited by Drusilla Modjeska,
there is a short section, pp. 192-9, with four tok pisin poems by three 
writers:

Milton Kwaipo              Tom Boy 192-3, Bougainville 194-5
Raymond Lugabai        Amerika! 196-7
Gwendolyn Kalupio      Wai Na Yu Go? 198-9.
