​A Poet’s Quest for Love: Hombarume The Giant to Host Poetic Singles Mixer to Find a Partner

HARARE, ZIMBABWE – September 22 2025– Sarura Wako, a new platform for artistic expression and connection, is proud to announce its inaugural event, the Sarura Wako Poetic Singles Mixer. This unique gathering is more than just a social event; it’s a deeply personal journey led by one of Zimbabwe’s most celebrated voices in Shona poetry, Hombarume The Giant. The event is designed to create a space for creative singles to connect on a profound level, all while serving as Hombarume’s personal quest to find a partner. The mixer will take place on Saturday October 4th 2025 at Cafe Mocha in Gunhill, Harare.

​Hombarume, whose powerful Shona poetry and resilience in the face of cerebral palsy has inspired many, is the co-creator and heart of this event. He seeks to challenge conventional dating norms by using the vulnerability and authenticity of poetry to find a true connection. The mixer is a reflection of his belief that love and partnership can be found in the most honest and expressive of places.

​”My poetry is a window into my soul, and I want to find someone who is brave enough to look through it,” said Hombarume. “I’m not just a poet with a disability; I’m a man who wants to love and be loved. This mixer is my way of inviting someone to see the art in my heart and the man behind the poetry.”

​The event will feature a series of curated activities, including:

​Performances: An intimate space for poets to share their original work, offering a direct look into their emotions and character.

​Poetry-Inspired Speed Mingling: A playful twist on speed dating, with conversation prompts based on famous poetic lines and themes, designed to move beyond superficial small talk.

​Collaborative Poem: An interactive canvas where attendees can contribute a line or two, collectively creating a unique piece of art by the end of the day.

​The Sarura Wako Poetic Singles Mixer is a testament to the power of art to bridge divides and a bold statement that love knows no boundaries. It is an invitation to Harare’s creative community to find connection and to witness a poet’s brave and public search for his muse.
