Strumming to the "Fast talking PI"

Sounding the pulse of the new cool and hip comes the so-2010 stirring provocations of Selena Tusitala Marsh. This Samoan college professor turned lyricist debunks the boring history and lecturn-style literature as she ignites us with the awakening of Pacific greats in lyrics as refreshing as ice cold lemonade in a Palm Desert heat-wave.

"The Nafanua, stiloetted, faafafine, girl in the moon circle, no shoe fits the foot of an earth-mama, you and you deported, breaking water, loose knot, wild-dog under my skirt, native daughter... PI" kinda provocation that makes you wanna bust open a fire hydrant and do the cha-cha on the streets of L.A.

In an unprecedented style, Marsh reclaims the voice of Samoan warfare in poetry so captivating through this bold contemporary feminist beat of what feels like an exclusive undercurrent rush in the bluest hightide Pacific coral reef.
