poetry 8 comments i was walking past a pole one day when a list caught my eye i read it aloud quietly unsure testing the moment in time a voice answered close and clear as breath behind my ear take what you need i turned no one there i was caught in that moment still the list simple yet profound take what you need it said again no pause no hesitating what you take for you will go outward to mend the world s broken pieces so i started with love then hope courage came next because each day the world seems to need all three without shortage love to mend the brokenhearted peace that quiets unrest and war courage strong enough to choose what s right no matter the cost as i held them something shifted the atmosphere leaned in the air the weight of things lightened with urgency i reached for luck brief in its moment manifesting its alignment with divine unfolding money i took with caution knowing its seductive power to destroy to be used not for excess but to level the ground no empty hands no divided lives only dignity in our humanity shared and passion i grabbed with fervor that fire to keep us faithful to destiny our purposeful calling fulfilling happiness was last on the list but i left it right there for it was already in abundance i could see it everywhere falling like light changing us all oh what a dream oh could this be take what you need a list for all the world to heal

january 28 2026 january 29 2026 by dawn minott in prose 10 comments timing really is everything my trip to jamaica aligned with one of the island s longest and most enduring stories of freedom resistance self determination and cultural resilience the story of the maroons the original maroons were a mix of indigenous taínos and africans brought to jamaica in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries who resisted british enslavement and established independent communities deep in the rugged mountainous interior known as the cockpit country on january 6 2026 i had the privilege of attending the 288th annual celebration of the maroons of accompong the story behind the accompong celebration stretches back nearly three centuries to the end of the first maroon war the day commemorates both the birth of the maroon leader kojo cudjoe and his victory over the british which led to the signing of the 1739 peace treaty that treaty formally recognized maroon freedom granted land and self governance and laid the foundation for an autonomy that is still honored today the road to accompong took us through small rural farming towns and villages many shaped during the plantation era roads precariously carved into mountainsides with deep precipices on one side kept my foot planted on an imaginary brake on the passenger side while the driver calmly assured us he knew these roads well enough to get us there safely accompong is in st elizabeth parish the community sits approximately 1 400 1 500 feet above sea level surrounded by steep limestone hills and dense forest terrain that once provided natural protection for maroon resistance fighters the parish was severely impacted by hurricane melissa the damage is still visible in both nature and infrastructure known as jamaica s breadbasket st elizabeth contributes a significant share of domestic food output the effects of melissa s destruction will be felt here and across the island for years to come still the hurricane could not interrupt 288 years of commemoration even as rain fell the maroons under the leadership of chief richard currie carried on as i arrived the sound of the abeng horn a cow horn once used to signal danger and communicate across the mountains rang out calling the maroons to assemble we made our way to the kindah tree kindah meaning one family once a massive mango tree that spread its canopy wide to shelter gatherings from the sun it now stands reduced to less than half its size after hurricane melissa s winds chief currie addressed the gathering with no script speaking plainly about peace autonomy and the responsibility to keep maroon culture alive not simply remembered drummers singers and dancers gathered for ritual attendees sat on rocks likely used by maroon warriors centuries ago places where strategies were planned against the british or victories quietly celebrated though as visitors we looked on this was no performance no spectacle only purpose sound and movement drawing people into a shared memory and for me standing there alongside two of jamaica s leading historians who offered history lessons in real time the past felt close and conversational later the maroons descended to the old town to honor their ancestors with offerings of freshly cooked food this part of the observance is reserved for maroons only and the boundary is deeply respected attendance was lighter this year due to the storm s aftermath but those of us who were present witnessed ancestral rituals drumming dance and storytelling core expressions of the maroon legacy for a first time witness nothing about the day felt like reenactment in the movement of bodies the rhythm of drums the blare of the abeng and the unfiltered words of the chief i saw pride reflection and remembrance moving together i felt humbled to witness it the drums still beat the abeng still calls the people still gather ever wondered what it s like at a maroon celebration it s not history on display it s continuity accompong remains freedom practiced resilient rooted and self defined monument close to entrance of the town reads homage to the hero kojo or cudjoe is regarded as one of the great resistance leaders against the military plantation governments which followed the english conquest of 1655 this town of accompong grew out of a fortified maroon outpost established about the commencement of the 18th century during the first maroon war the town was established by accompong at the direction of his brother kojo the war continued for nearly 50 years finally the english asked for peace on march 1 1739 a treaty was signed bringing the first maroon war to an end kojo died at over 90 jamaica national trust commission 2026 all rights reserved like what you see to never miss a

and standard english words just weren t enough take njabulo from isizulu and also used in isixhosa it names a joy so full it spills over the kind that rises from deep inside and radiates outward touching everyone in its path or have you had those moments when language needed stretching in jamaica we play with the english language to say more to create words that carry weight for instance apprecilove instead of appreciate to express a level of gratitude rooted in care affection and presence not mere politeness i start here because this piece is an expression of njabulo and of apprecilove written for the friends who held me while i came home to support hurricane relief in jamaica you can read that piece here i came for three weeks to volunteer in communities affected by the hurricane i was able to do that freely because friends stepped in without hesitation when i said mi need a place fi cotch i need somewhere to stay the response was immediate yeah man come they opened their homes offered beds shared meals made space for rest between long days one friend gave me a base a place to store suitcases packed with supplies as i moved from parish to parish another offered her airbnb so i could pause breathe and reset in that small window of reprieve i had a few days to walk on sand soft as clouds under my feet and swim in water as clear as glass jamaica still knows how to restore photo taken by me their generosity removed every practical barrier and let me focus on supporting but more than that it deepened our bonds in the middle of relief efforts shared tables and quiet conversations became part of the healing too their care didn t just sustain it strengthened our connection and affirmed the jamaican do spirit in the most personal way in apprecilove open doors steady friendships thanks that run deep still photo taken by me while on the kulcha connect waterlane mural tour when next you plan to visit jamaica and ocho rios in beautiful st ann parish is on your

24 2026 may 1 2026 by dawn minott in poetry 25 comments in my article holding change loss i promised to return with more writing and on the ground updates from being in jamaica you ll recall on october 28 2025 hurricane melissa a catastrophic category 5 hurricane with sustained winds around 185 mph 295 km h made historic landfall near jamaica s southwest coast at the time every major news outlet carried images and stories of devastation now the world has moved on but the work of recovery is just beginning and sustained attention accountability and action are essential with that in mind i made it to jamaica i wanted to be here sooner but the reality is this the country will be in recovery for a long time so arriving now still feels right not too late if you ve read my other posts about jamaica you know how heightened the anticipation of returning home always is for me i m always on the lookout for that first stretch of green and coastline which always settles something in me this time i started filming earlier than usual not just the landing but the first sight of land itself when the wheels touched down the usual clapping broke out the applause of gratitude then the flight attendant invited a louder one we obliged it felt earned my lips spoke the sentiments of my heart me reach home but this trip wasn t just about returning home it was about the work on the ground and seeing what s real beyond the headlines in kingston it s possible to feel like all is well that illusion didn t last long on the drives west the story changed there were more than 170 communities severely impacted in the 6 parishes that felt the brunt of the storm i went to three of them st elizabeth trelawny and hanover from a distance you d miss the damage but the reminders came fast downed light poles roofless houses churches schools hospitals infirmaries roads riddled with potholes that are now more like craters the storm s imprint cuts clearly through the green twisted sheets of zincs wrapped around tress so tightly as if that was their natural home and trees precariously leaned to one side an indication of the effects of sustained winds all a physical reminder of what western jamaica endured as hills and mountains passed by what was most evident is that nature was already healing itself people tell me that the fresh greenery masks the havoc that stripped trees of bark and leaves and left slopes bare and brown what stood out just as much was the response people are already helping themselves and each other schools shifted to tents makeshift repairs are everywhere zincs repurposed tarpaulin stretched taut across roofs so that the landscape is dotted with blue i said it out loud and the ceo of the foundation i m volunteering with agreed she said soon after the hurricane people were snatching zincs from wherever the wind had blown them to use to protect their homes in talking with people amid the horror of having lived through hurricane melissa what consistently emerged were stories of neighbors rallying around one another in one case someone gave a building to a shopkeeper who lost her entire business so she could start again no waiting no dramatics just movement that s the jamaican spirit in action hanover took us further into the hinterland the drive was painstakingly slow the hurricane had worsened the roads so severely and one shorter route was still submerged appearing more like a dam from our view above our driver navigated potholes like a minefield as we followed a minivan bobbing and weaving its way through carrying the more than 200 care packages we were to distribute to families as well as supplies for several small enterprises the needs are wide from safe roofing materials and school supplies to infrastructure support equipment for small businesses and psychosocial care i chose to focus on schools and female headed small enterprises supporting both education and livelihoods while investing in people s capacity and dignity based on advocacy efforts i was able to assist schools with books and in one case a tent mobilized through unicef that now serves as a gathering space after the school s roof was completely ripped off with electricity still not restored the solar powered lanterns and power banks were well received i was grateful to also be able to speak with people offering a listening ear and psychological support one that stood out was a single mother of three children in school who lost her home and everything in it the only...
