One of this man's collections contains a poem dedicated to Mickey Smith that writes the word "murder" with 49 "R"s and claims "i nevva wear neck. tie yet."  In addition to that poem about a man who was stoned to death, appropriately titled "Stone," he opened a long poetic work with the line "To hell / with Af- / rica / to hell / with Eu- / rope too."  This poet symbolizes his nation's struggles with the symbol of an unfertile "rock seed," and he claims that the effects of slavery caused the rise of a misogynist system he dubs the "manscape."  A long poetic work by this author, the third in a trilogy with his Mother Poem and Sun Poem, ends with a section called "Xango" and recasts (*) Prospero and Caliban as a plantation owner and servant.  This author of X/Self also claims that Caribbean poets must use an amalgamation of tongues he dubs the "nation language." For 10 points, name this author of a trilogy consisting of Rites of Passage, Masks, and Islands, the Arrivants trilogy, an author who is not George Lamming, but is from Barbados.
