South Africa is burning,
And my soul is churning,
I feel for the poor,
Who sleep on the floor,
The hopeless the hungry,
In this country,
We are a rainbow nation
Should encourage cognition
Let us all come together,
And think of forever
We have a future,
And the sooner
We work towards equality
And chase away inequality
We will become the envy
Of this wide world, I Jenny
Wish from the depths of my heart
In the beginning .. a fresh start!
FROM MY GREEK HERITAGE I KNOW THE WORD
"ENOSIS" IS INTERPRETED TO MEAN THE UNION OF
OR, THE JOINING OF.
These empty hands
are seeking for the enosis.
Without sea
I'm drowning
without wing
i'm falling.
Sorrows are divided
in shifts
they are visiting each house.
A treat for a memory.
We look like candle-lights
inside the ocean.
Steamy and lonely.
The wind's blowing
will judge our absence.
A default judgment
in the courtroom
of the night.
