Kifumbamacho - the Weird Path

WEIRD PATH -KIFUMBAMACHO

Living at the coast i never gave any credence
to stories of the supernatural attributing them
to ignorant locals who are into mysticism an spirit-ism

being a believer in the Supreme i never gave them
stories much though.. best of buddies..
Me, Jackie and Georgie had a funny incident

I name it funny for lack of a better word
we lost our path on a shortcut coming
from a swim at the pirates beach resort

we took a back route which we thought 
twas a short cut turned to be the longest
cut we have ever took

were seeing our destination
yet for crying sake we seem to be
moving in a weird circle..or is it short

back to the same place
a quarry with a strange natural bridge with
strange lights below - funny huts on the side

its dark now yet we should be
safely tucked into our beds already
our navigation skills rendered useless

Kifumbamacho we are rotating back
to the same place Kifumbamacho
Were praying earnestly we resurface home

Kifumbamacho mysticism hypnosis
where you loose you're senses
in a strange manner 

We asked a a stranger for help and
in a matter of seconds following his
indicated directions we arrive at the hostels

Us uplands people don't understand the
weird coastal s choosing to step lightly
had a laugh about it with Georgie an Jackie

Them claiming i was the architect of the kifumba macho
God knows i more flabbergasted as than they were - we then
laughed it off for we are not superstitious like the weird coastals
