About the Book

The Sky’s Forgotten Prayer is an evocative collection of poetry, navigating the intricate intersections of fate, tradition, and the human spirit. 

Organised into ?ve sections—Logic of the In?nite, Songs From the Palm of the Sky, The Sky Was Once a Drum, The River Remembers, and Under the Eaves of Time—the collection serves as a bridge between the physical and the metaphysical. ?yágbólá portrays rhythm not merely as music, but as a "code half-heard" that governs the pulse of life and "guides the spirit home through sound and night". 

This work weaves together Yoruba cultural heritage and universal questions of existence to create a "living hymn that time forever saves".
