Summary:

"Peyi lòk, leta pòk. Sitiyasion peyi-nou malouk, efrayik. Tire toupatou toutlajounen nan zoréy nou. Kè nou pa sispann sote. Nan chak kay, nan chak katie, nan chak vil, kè tout Ayisyen ap sote. Bandi-teroris vle sote tout peyi a. Ayisien ap mouri kou ravèt. Gro malè pandye sou tèt noutout. Nanm powèt la sizonnen. Kè-li ap senyen. Vant-li ap bouyi. Eske n'ap chape ? Eske lòk ap sove nou ? Se paske mwen renmen lang kreyòl la kifè mwen ta renmen li kanpe pi bien pou li rive pi lwen, pou li taye banda, pou li sedui lemonn. Ayibobo! LÒK se yon tit polisemik. Christophélès se yon mèt nan plezi estetik. Li konn kijan pou manyen lang kreyòl la pou fè li depale"--Back cover.

"Country is crazy, state is crazy. The situation in our country is crazy, scary. Shootings are heard all day long in our ears. Our hearts do not stop jumping. In every house, in every neighborhood, in every city, the hearts of all Haitians are jumping. Terrorist bandits want to jump the whole country. Haitians are dying like cockroaches. Great misfortune hangs over all of us. The poet's soul is trembling. His heart is bleeding. His stomach is boiling. Will we escape? Will lòk save us? It is because I love the Creole language that I would like it to stand up better so that it can reach further, to cut through the barriers, to seduce the world. Ayibobo! LÒK is a polysemic title. Christophélès is a master of aesthetic pleasure. He knows how to manipulate the Creole language to make it speak"--Google translation of the Haitian Creole, back cover.
