Where I Come From
Where I Come From
Where I come from;
Hills roll like giants walking
misty, like they are smoking
Baobab tree is up-side-down
its twigs zany like of a clown.
Where I come from;
Fathers become fathers
when it is time to be fathers
Mothers remain true mothers
falling not in love with brothers.
Where I come from;
Children remain lovely children
until they are mature in the ken-
As kids sleep with mothers
they don't bed own mothers!
Where I come from;
Rivers still flow full spat
Nature fawns on hearts like a cat.
We owe it to the woods and hills
not choking civilisation bills.
Where I come from;
We are a progeny of warriors
that break adversity barriers
With a sordid velvet punch
from a sombre Olive Branch!
Where I come from:
Women are genuine women
and, adults don't play children
When dazed with beauty
They take full responsibility.
Where I come from;
We walk or crawl bare feet
in order to skulk so discreet
And ignite the heart beat in Soil
to vibrate with Love's toil.
Where I come from;
We sleep on the bare floor
where there is no locked door
to fawn on Nature's heart beat
or mother Nature's thigh heat.
Where I come from;
We dance when we are happy,
we sing when we are angry
We cry when in rupture
or under ecstasy's capture!
Where I come from;
We are a people who dream
dreams like an endless stream
A dream of love and beauty
dream of cornucopia in Eternity.
Where I come from;
People are cool and quiet
and true, they are quite right!
If you force them to talk
They will force you to walk!
Where I come from;
Girls shun bras that are tight
breasts may pierce them alright!
Men don't impede organ elongation
by underwear strangulation!
This is where I com from!
