Dear Mr Bacca,

                        My name is Steven Bala, i am writing to tell you that i find your poems really intriguing and i’ve been waiting to ask you some questions.

As you know my name name is Steven and i’m from the capital of Albania. i go to school in central London and my English teacher Mr O’Brien ,handed me one of your poems and I’ve got to say its one of the best I’ve read. i really enjoyed your poem and i like your hunger and determination to fight for what you wanted to achieve. lastly i think your poems are really inspirational.

Whilst reading your poems in our classroom we had a discussion about the poem immigrants in our own land and about your childhood. i don’t mean to be rude but is it true that you grew up in an orphanage? if so was it tough? and how did you stay positive?

Anyway, moving on i would like to talk about your eagerness and why you were so eager to study literature? Theirs many other subjects like maths and science but why did you choose literature? Was it a natural instinct? I really like your desire and fight to battle for what you wanted to achieve. This shoes me that you didn’t just make one poem and become complacent you carried on going.

Reading your poetry inspire me but i want to know what inspired you? your dedication and passion was  the key figure that helped you overcome your anger at least that is what i think. i can guarantee you that many other people in your situation would have given up but you strived for excellence which is why you are who you are.

Lastly, i would like to know how prison was like? when you watch television shows they make it look so painful and like you’ve been abandoned it seems like hell. If i was in that situation i would have lost hope, i would feel like i am unwanted. But how did you bounce back and use that time to do something constructive i certainly would have never been able to do that.

To conclude i think your extraordinary efforts have been rewarded and that your poems are excellent especially who understands me but me. This is my favourite poem because it shows the tough and difficult stages in life and it encourages young men to stay on the correct path and to choose the future that is most beneficial. Please can you take time to read this letter and can you please come back to me with well executed answers.

your sincerely

steven bala
