“Bonjour” I always said
and I jumped out of bed and ran outside
On my bare feet
On the warm groundAfrica
Bonjour, I always said
Hello warm earth!
Hello warm sun!
Hello hot birds!But what do I mean by that?
Why am I saying this?
Why am I saying this to you?
A young man tries to build a future in a new country but is confronted with a reality that is very difficult for him to come to grips with. The text is inspired by 'Le Horla' by Guy de Maupassant. 'Never again a monologue' is a work in progress, the development of a creation with the Senegalese actor Idy Mbengue.
