Ex Canadian turned South African Henrik Brand aka Croc. E. Moses comes of many places; he speaks in the voice of a modern day court jester, sometimes troubadour. His topical poems and protest songs ask us to place ourselves where are you now in the cosmic entanglement? Are you the puzzle youre intent on fleeing? The Croc hints, teases at overscaled expectation and mutterings of self hood, and his poetry offers an original insight into the contemporary South African social and political landscape. Crocs song/poems partly come of his living virtually outside of institutions and corporations, unbound by securities. So comes a mantric humour that comments on living out the odds, hopping direction when doubt or despair untune the livelihoods of creative thought. Whatever can be made of the craft of Croc. Es art how it concentrates a many pieced suggestion; how its refraining twists angles that trip attention he offers a crying laugh as a sensitive songster poet to a future leaner world.
