Biltong and Bread

Konkas draw a blanket over the flats,
but our state live like over fed fat cats
Zuma had another great opinion,
now we must dream of a Rand reunion

People crying, life’s an uncertain fate,
but they are building another...

Troep

Ek wou nie wees als wat ek kon 
wees,
Ek wou nie meer 0800 gedoen het 
as ander,
Maar ek moes, om 'n beter 
toekoms te he.

vlag op jou linker skouer waai

Die Wereld Draai

As jy jou pyn buite wys 
sal vriendelike,
Irreterende vreemdeling 
jou inlig dat die wêreld 
aanhou draai.
En hulle is reg.
Dit doen.
Maak nie saak hoe hard jy 
dit smeek om te stop.
Dit hou aan draai.

Ek word wakker...

Ever Glowing Angel

If angels could see me now you would see;
A furiously jealous tear fall from each of their watery eyes,
A malevelent and scheming smirk crawl across their faces,
You could see the agitated gripping and ungripping of...

With wisdom and love allowed them to soar

What Are Gods

Having successfully seduced Zeus with his boyish beauty,
Whose eagle's claws captured the once mortal soul,
He was blessed with immortality and endowed with divine duty,
To bear cups and have filled to the top his bottom's bowl.

Sway - For the Adult Mind

You must learn self control
Because if your heart Continues
To beat obnoxiously
when you imagine
My pink lips softly parting and calling your name
Or when you close your eyes
And dream of the way my hips sway
Thinking of the...

Wens Van Die Nagtegal

Wens van die Nagtegaal

Die tering knaag en groei aan my; elke uur en dag
Obsessiewe abses met ‘n kompulsiewe smag.
Grou ‘n gat en maak maar plek; vir doodsangs in die nag
Wie sal huil? Wie sal treur?...

Verdwyn

Verdwyn

Lieg

Lieg 

Herhaaldelik en gereeld soos net in 7de laan
Was geheimnisse en liegstories die haat wat uit jou gaan.
Ek natuurlik, onderskei, kon binne in my voel
Oortuigend jou nie glo nie, soos water van my rug afspoel.

Vermydelik...

Nacht

Im Schweigen verborgen,
die Nacht in Einsamkeit.
Ein fernes Licht 
wandert langsam,
verliert sich im Meer der Sterne
wie ein Sankorn am Strand.
Wiederkehrende Träume
ziehen ins Endlose,
dann wieder Stille.
Gedanken wandern unruhig
in eine andere Zeit

Hidden in silence,
night in solitude.
A distant light

Kronkelpaaie Van Gister

Kronkelpaaie van gister
Ons almal is gesnoer op die paaie van gister
Sommiges probeer nog ontsnap: Net meer bewuster
Nog kronkelpaaie lê voor: Oor die maanskyn-flou
Gevangenis steeds in die skadu. Wilde winde rou

Spons-gewete sus en treur
Voel ek die...

You and I
We were two seeds Just like each other
Things that made us different came later
We were germinated in the distance of some time
You got nourished and cherished by the world
I got abandoned and neglected...

Iets om vas te hou
