What abou' de lo?

What abou' de lo? ("What about the law") is a poem by Adam Small (1936-2016).

A poem about love across the racial divide, the poem has been used in numerous word programmes and for dramatic performance, e.g. in conjunction with his play Joanie Galant-hulle (performed at the Market Theatre in 1981), as well as being turned into an award-winning animated film by Charles Badenhorst (2016)[1].
