I will not sleep alone
Love is freedom my friends!
I miss my zulu queen!
Let struggle hill play cupid
Skin to skin take my love
There was a ballerina named Lulu
Who wanted to go see Honolulu
She got such a deep tan
When before she was wan
Her friends renamed her Zanzibar Zulu
"love's craft"
there once was a gnu named Owen
who knew all that was known and so in
South African Zulu
said, "Kukhulu!"
which then became a zen koan
There was once a lawyer from Honolulu
Who always suffered from flu
He never stood before the judge
If he was offered a fudge
And a ticket to the land of the zulu
There once was a tiger at the zoo.
His eyes followed visitors like glue.
Teeth sparkled bright white.
Chops licked at their sight.
He wanted Zulu on his menu.

You think about him
And his blessee
In your house.this love
Must perish in the sugar
Canes of kwa-zulu natal
Blessee:a stupid young woman who is greedy,who gets gifts from a fat, lousy and ugly married man
too little said too soon
or is it too much too late
either way, the crescent moon
just won't align
reflections in a mirror cracked
icy winds stinging my face
it ebbs and flows when I look back
the clock on zulu time
pen to my paper
A slave for a master
The brown in pigmentation
Beautiful dialects
of a Zulu nation
rediscovered
in a queen's eyes.
Her gaze speaks
like a summer sunrise
befalling the Serengeti
pen to my paper.
Word to my flow
A mixture of color
only poets know
Africa, lie low,
amidst the jungle beauty
and many oceans.
Stanley meets Zulu
the center cracks open then
all things fall apart

Modupe Sefunmi
Zuni and Zulu cute twin gorillas
They loved the most insane hairy fellas
They courted them expertly
Fed them sweet chamomile tea
For they were such conniving bellas
Jake and Jim went to their hut for tea
Both fell for Zuni unfortunately
Zulu was so mad
She called them both “Cad”
So neither were offered matrimony
Zulu drum
Egyptian people gather
Chant for freedom
Sesame seed music
Power to the soul
Amazing marketplace
Amazing fortress
Military gather power
Zulu drum
Mosques chant
Church goers pray
Lonely Wolf cries out
The Pyramids shake
Large question mark on the future
One thing can change they say
Egyptian boulders
Form:
Tribal beauties, all lined up,
eyes cast to the ground.
Young breasts bare and feet not shod.
Only natural beauty found.
The Zulu prince walks back and forth,
perusing for a bride;
While hopeful father's look on, tense,
Each displaying their loin's pride.
One of these will be a Queen,
Birth a Nation's next proud Chief.
With result, a father can live on....
Mortality's Relief.
At the silted banks of river Nile,
I'd sung to the glory of Lucy;
I'd soared high over the echoing Savanna
and fought and bled for Shaka Zulu.
I was first to push back abyss,
the last to be ripped away. I'll
return one day, I'll bring the rest.

Apart from the worn stone-step
where drunks still topple,
or the hand-painted sign,
all has changed,
now a neon glow backlights a plasticized fascia,
all ‘local color’ painted over.
In the car park,
two frizzy blondes face off,
The smaller has plastic bangles,
she rattles like a Zulu warrior,
fingers stab through cusswords.
Youths shout
over the clomping-thump
of their car radios.
"I used to come here often"
I explain to my incredulous wife.
"Good times."

Token Steps
Ruling winds the austral buttes naked slopes ...
as vortex smoky rise aloft Zulu's kraal
Clans in circular indlu huts enclosing round
all women famous to craft their beads
while getting set for tomorrows Reed Dance
a trait of Zulu armistice Nguni extends
Bestill, war drums eve chants Shaka's hopes ...
