Best Singlehandedly Poems


Fly Away By My Son
Rap from my son that he put into music.  He was murdered, but his music still lives.  Typed the way he left it.  You can hear him on Sound Cloud under Brooks Greenlee.

Once upon a time not long ago, I was so...

The Unpresidential Man of the Hour
A man unpresidentially known for the showerhead
Msholozi, the man in charge of singlehandedly running a nation into crisis
With him at the helm the public anxiously watches as the state of things degenerate
The rand has slumbered, corruption trivialised and unemployment popularised
Numeric’s play trickery on his unknowing...

Questions of a Dying Old Man
His net was dry and become brittle
Anyone could see it hadn’t been cast
In many months
The foaming sea roiled on the breaking waves 

Outside his hut, the baking sun burned the pebbles on the beach
The old man lay in his bed covered in sweat
A memory stash...

Come Away
You swept in my life, like a whirlwind that you are
singlehandedly held me against your love
being ripped right into
my sweet love, now I am blue....

You are my serenity, the star in my sky
with hope you landed and swept me away
kisses so sweet and held me...

You, Lass
You, unforgettable lass
Wined and dined by champion stuff
Chose me singlehandedly
Disdaining emblem, lance and ruff

I turned out to be minstrel though
Luckless wayward troubadour
Flitting past from post to post
Stringing harps and often poor

Lamented  bald and ribald all,
‘That epitome of womankind
Should languish in the arms of such
Fool,...

At the Time I Wasnt Ready
Emotional torment is what has conspired
From a decision I made and reality that transpired
A mistake so great only myself to blame
Unexpected pregnancy the guilt does remain
Trapped in abusive relationship no support id receive
Abortion the only option my loss to alone bereave
No maternal instinct  no...

Slippered Millionaires
Slippered Millionaires

This early morning, there was in early circulation in whatsapp, a form of social media...
A picture of a seated Steve Jobs, he of the era defining IPhone phenomena...
Emblazoned across this simple picture was a most interesting comment...
About the simplicity of the man who unleashed...

To the Law:
I salute you brother of mine
One whose venomous bile
Sends shivers down the spine
Of spineless rank and file
I have never known you
But like William’s “18”, your
Legend lives on afresh and new
Telling tales of valour and rancour
Singlehandedly, you transformed Be-neen
Into a Bend-Hell; singlehandedly,
You  made the state’s...

Madiba
"Madiba"
The currents keep up sparking up and down
Such elegance, your life had more scenes than an epic flick
Defined humanity you did, even in death you deserve a crown
Singlehandedly you kept the white fleas a bay, fielding stick
Madiba, the Great artist, thou painted red the entire...

A Whole Day Spent Saying Sorry
Can one a whole day spend saying 'sorry':
Can man fill with 'sorry' back of lorry?

Methinks it would make a sight gory
Craving 'longest sorry' for one's glory:
Someone quite like you hairy or furry
To with 'voiced sorry' your favor curry...

It was a full day of it to...

Never Be Good Enough
I'm sick of all of the secrets & I'm tired of all of the lies
I'm tired of all of them stupid boys - making me feel all this sickness inside
I'm done with all of the negativity - I'm done with all of the fakes
I'm over...

Single
I've been freed as love walked away
The myth we've met were abscond silently 
The gladness had now turned into annoy
Mayhap i'll erudite to be singlehandedly 

They said that everyone is lonely sometimes 
But I'll invariably remain solitary all the times
As no futile or any sprout...
