In the desert
My soul withers not
Her love is my hope
Blues lose the war for my heart
I stand tall against the flames
The street prays
The wind howls for blood
The bed prays for sex
The tree prays for love to win
In the next election
Am no athiest but...
truth be told, it is,
infact,
TORMENTING...
how shallow religion,
can, may or is,
sometimes...
Form:
I am always on course
Living life with no remorse
Life is like a push and pull force
You only get back what you toss
Uncertainty is humanity,
That which alters not the thoughts,
Yet gives it a try and confidence should be a better fate!
It's a must to die!!
A must to rise!!
A must to read
A must to interpret!!
It's all a must for the sun to smile!!!!
I see your suffering
How Satan is treating you
But hold on
and
I will
give you
Fruit
from
the
Tree of Life
IT’S YOU -DODO
For many years thought extinct
A lost friend, rediscovered
An African encounter
Ah, Dodo – it’s you
haiku
the poison dart frog
these from the native to tropical central and south america.
No swimming in water.
You are beautiful
Brave and strong marikana
Capitalist bullets
Have not killed his spirit
The man in the green blanket
Sweet Home Eden.
Amidst widening desert.
Faint lions whisper:
"globes warming, rains rare."
Sweet Home Eden, for how long?
God grants you this year
Give this day to love
Surrender this week
To humanity and family
Donate the month to yourself
Fallen leaves are
Battered but not bowed after
The siege of the frost
I blame my long lament
You really wanted to stay
You made me black
and the whole world
persecute me for being
black
Who are you to question me
Remember I love you
Let the joy that flows in the gate of affection
Flood your world like an ocean
And water your desert with a unique bloom.
The Nabta Playa
Stonehedges of the old age
Migrants of passage
Brave pilgrims of the unknown
Lost paradigms of the blown
if you are sick
go not to a doctor
approach a politician
he will preach patriotism
that you die in peace
here in Africa
I don't go in poor neighborhoods
They have a poor education
The crime rate is high
And they steal
Where did Jesus live?
sounds of wilderness
echo under scorching sun

Walk in silence
Your dissapointments will not
Live long to see how
Strong love unites us in the
Rolling hills of zululand
I read people's minds
I know why you lust for me
Back in the free state
You fire my imagination
We'll be together forever
A handsome man
From the city you are going to
Was shot on this spot
I still hear his sweet voice
Saying that he loves me
Self control
When a man lacks
Self control
He lacks
Self pride
So start from here
If you ever think of
Change.
time and patience work together
time is the seed
and patience is the water
which nourishes life
to flourish in the future
A brown out, full blown
Voltage fluctuates, quieting my tone
Fed up, no longer distracted
Am fully ready to be contracted
