Political Veres

Political verses

They came and looked.
Assaulted the dwellers
We preferred blindness

The winner robs all
Apartheid normalized
Slowly we see horror

They murder the holly.
That insists on surviving. 
The pure outpace evil.

Running Thoughts

You can never outpace your own thoughts in a race; best is to run alongside them.

You never chose to run, and there was no start gun, forever you will be behind them.

So don't waste your time, little child of mine, running around thinking's race.

Just watch your thoughts run like they have since they begun, and let your mind's legs take a break.

Freedom Belated

.

It was all a sorry mistake
   the judge and warden say,

      and so, after twenty years, 
      they finally set him free;

   strange, but freedom no longer
gladdens him in any way.



Leaning on a hoe, he gazes
   at the prison garden plots,

      sees in his tilted shadow 
      the past outpace the present,

   and what's left of the future
the past has overtaken!

The Walker

bedeviled by saucy angels
he takes a twilight walk

behind his eyes
the old world is fading away
left and right
were but one
unclimbable horizon

he quickened his steps
as if fast walking would
outpace the beating of his
homeless heart

as for the tender-hearted angels
they were undressing
always undressing

always demanding
he stay rooted in his earth


if he could

even if he couldn't
