If you’re a fan of poetry and cinema you’ve come to the right place. Read my Black Panther haiku and find out little known facts about the film. Have you seen Black Panther already? Let me know what you think?
Hidden in shadows.
A family feud, a threat.
He must protect them.
Prince T’Challa, or Black Panther (played by Chadwick Boseman) is heir to Wakanda. A secretly advanced kingdom hiding in plain sight within Africa. He returns to his country after the death of his father to assume his rightful place as King. But, Killmonger (played by Michael B. Jordan), T’Challa’s long lost cousin is a fierce pretender to the throne. Killmonger is hellbent on taking Wakanda for himself, so he can sell its advanced technology, Vibranium, to the highest bidder. It’s up to the Black Panther to stop him in his tracks before he gains even more super-human abilities and changes the future of Wakanda, forever.
