Your person fair,...

You can be so burdensome 
You are pushing me down angrily
You are dangerous like a lion in the

You got to build more self-esteem

To balance on a bike

you've gotta keep moving

but

 

since we can't

always move

 

our lives will improve

from falling

and breakin

our crown

 

wise is the...

Grandma's Pets

My granda went away to sea
For many months on end
He'd travel on a fishing boat
With his brother and a friend

Sort of primitive and hairy
On first encounter his face

Run a marathon without dropping
And when he got his dander up

I walked around the halls of school in constant fear
Considering I had no friends; My foes were always near
Harassed daily, abused physically and mentally

It was a time to bond and booze with dear Papa,
An interval all the more naughtily charming

Alpha male
No doubt about it
It's in the way he walks
It's in the way he talks
Self confidence and presence
He knows he's in a powerful position
When women at work call him Mc Dreamy
I always ask "Who's That??"
They...

Postponed due to an invisible fear

Put off an artistic war 
Where the death toll is replaced by...

At dinner you sat
With phone in hand
Leaving no room for me 
in your attention span

I got up
And came back
In active conversation you sat
With your friend on her phone
And a call on top of that

He came...

is my cliks and twists are softer
and sincere
but fearless...
I am the very...

between Kalkveld and Otjiwarongo,
I saw a woman next to the road,
a tall, battered figure, with blood-stained cloths,
eyes glows yellow in the light of moon,

I have my own truths
I'm sure you have yours too,
sparkling gems of experience
that no one else will ever believe.

That my apathy begins to wane
The day I forget who I've become 
And start my life anew

Garnered by years...

the cookie monster gets her strength
from the plate by your bed.
Sucking down crumbs, growing at every bite,
knowing she shouldn't be fed.
Christmas eve is her favorite day,
when the goods are brought about.
After bed time, she downs...

But I can’t...
