Wild Life and the White Man
Wild life some guard with their last drop of blood, Save God should want to waste it with fierce flood: I have in mind white men, sometimes, funny, Quick to buy strange theatre with money… Arrest and imprisonment for poachers. They would no longer sell to keen butchers; Hard labor behind bars as teacher; When one is out Criticizing Preacher… Earth’s Richest Wild...

Madagascar Christmas
I The elders speak of a special healer In their times of trouble Their country was overrun by "others" And women and children felt frustrations Men could not vent upon Occupiers In their slavery to others, cruelty ruled And one widow, or outcast wife, suffered More than others. she had a disease Not leprosy, yet cast out: Don't touch me!

Madagascar Sky
"Madagascar Sky" When Kusi becomes Kaskazi, Mozambique current sings, My ship will so then fly, Toward a Madagascar sky. I'll run her 'cross waves gone lost, Come from far offshore. Down such coast no man has seen, Here nor e'er before. Songs a'feather bow to weather, Beneath a silken sky. Sail down to Cape or 'round, To adventure now fast bound. Keel well atop deep reef, Cold o'night from...
