		New York City was of course the governmental seat or capital, as well as the metropolis of' the province.

	Borzoi Reader \| Authors \| Sharon Olds
		Sharon Olds was the New York State Poet Laureate for 1998 to 2000.
		From Sharon Olds--a stunning new collection of poems that project a fresh spirit, a startling energy of language and counterpoint, and a moving, elegiac tone shot through with humor.
		From poems that erupt out of history and childhood to those that embody the nurturing of a new generation of children and the transformative power of marital love, Sharon Olds takes risks, writing boldly of physical, emotional, and spiritual sensations that are seldom the stuff of poetry.

		Prior to choosing a secondary school, my family moved to Asokwa, several blocks from up-and-coming Amass and a couple of minutes drive from the University of Science & Technology.
		The proximity to a comfortable new family villa in a posh residential area coupled with Amass’ rising academic and athletic potential and hazing threats from some unruly aboyie coppers at Aggrey tilted heavily against the much-favored Prempeh.
		Hence my new kiddie philosophy: Amass Phobia dash-dash.
