Broken Charger
My phone at 1%
Love's battery runs empty
Who gon' charge me now?
Dusk hums low again
I scroll through old convos-sigh.
Ghosts read ''typing...still''

Drum

heart loud
in freedom
rising,broken-

Mzantsi Bus Stop
Minibus honks, dust rise high-
vendors shout,wives wave koebaai.
Wind smells like pap stew.
prayer and perfume too-
Time flies-
So do I

Heilbron Love Song
She wears my T-shirt.
Famo music follows her hips.
streets lights blink approval.
I forget my sorrows
The world dances small.

Truth
Revolutions begin the day you whisper, ''enough''.

Taxi Ride To Wepenaar
Rain drops on glass so slow
city lights blink-I see hope glow

Wi-Fi Gospel
No signal again,
but somehow Jesus still calls
bless the hotspot Lord
