Don’t worry about whether you’ll use it wisely. Get a clear picture in your mind of what you want to make happen. Then, just do it. TAURUS It’s getting to be time to prepare for your next big project. You may not even know what it is. Just finish up whatever you already have going. That’s a great start.. GEMINI You’ll need to hit the ground running tomorrow, so give it a little thought. What do you want to accomplish? You and your team will have about 48 hours. CANCER Don’t.share your opinions now unless specifically asked. You’ll achieve the greatest rewards by doing as you’re told and following the directions. LEO This is the moment of hesitation before you take the plunge. Tomorrow and the next day, it’s full speed ahead. Better repack your parachute in preparation. VIRGO The old routine has been somewhat modified. It’s good to update, but it does take an adjustment. Allow extra time. LIBRA You may be in that awkward phase where your idea hasn’t quite come together. Ignore criticism. Accept coaching from one you respect. SCORPIO You should be rejuvenated by now and ready to get back to work. That’s good, because there won’t be time for much else tomorrow and the next day. Get ready. SAGITTARIUS Maybe it’s time to stop putting up with an ongoing irritant. If it doesn’t work, fix it. The annoyance is slowing you down. CAPRICORN Everything’s always changing, yet everything stays the same. Things may be stirred up right now, but more truths will be revealed. AQUARIUS There’s certainly enough confusion to make things very interesting. You’re getting smarter, and new revelations will help you achieve your goals. PISCES You’re about to come up with a profitable idea. Trouble is, you don't know which one will bring in the big bucks. Better write them all down!

Regardless of the Faulkner-es que complexity here, you can’t turn your nose up at descriptions such as: “This room is lined with newspapers. They make the place photo special to the gamecock ' bsjwes is a USC professor, IK. at and fiction writer. look like a gift cheaply and hastily wrapped on the inside.” In other spots, the prose be comes almost primeval, resort ing to lines such as “Joseph is hungry” or “Joseph is angry.” Dawes does a great job of mim icking the mental state of his characters. Dawes demonstrates tremen dous strength in his decision to plunge into the eroticism and the gruesome, gritty nature of Jamaican culture. He doesn’t mind telling us about the stretch marks on Sarah’s body when she showers or how good it feels to lie in bed with someone. When murder occurs in his fic tion, Dawes doesn’t shy away from detailed descriptions of the corpse. In fact, many of the stories aim at demonstrating the hypocrisy and cruelty inherent in human nature. Dawes manages to cover the ail ments of Jamaican society in 300 pages, not sparing the misogyny, prejudice, violence and instabili ty of individuals. Consider “In the Gully,” in which Felix rapes and murders a young girl and gets away with it because his father knows how to bully Felix’s schoolmate — the only witness. But the book also celebrates Jamaican culture, especially reg gae, with the Vershan chapters that are spaced evenly through out — evocative of the black and white jungle and cabaret paint ings by Aaron Douglas. These sec tions are festivals of light and sound. Dawes is also the author of nearly a dozen collections of poet ry and three nonfiction books, in cluding a book on the lyrics of Bob Marley. While Dawes is primarily a poet, his fiction gives us a taste of what this talent could do if he ever decided to produce a longer work of fiction. Considering the nature of his life’s work, it will most likely in volve reggae, marijuana and great language. Commentson this story? E-mail gamecockmixeditor@hotmail.com
