Ode to a Wild Woman (for Karima Brown) By Supplied Share Zenariah Barends pays tribute to veteran journalist Karima Brown who died of complications due to Covid-19 this week. Ode to a Wild Woman (for Karima Brown) How will we be in this world without you? Oh wild woman driven You roared with a smile Springing from your incisive mind laced with wisdom made public pointed out who run amongst wolves ** from wily traps that constrains them You watered precious flowers bloom when you find that soft shore Your life's work like the brightest of stars * References: Ozymandias - a poem by Percy Bysshe Shelley and Women who run with the Wolves - Dr Clarissa Pinkola Estes
