Governments
The masses are being controlled
Our freedoms restricted and put on hold
All leaders following the same playbook
Robbing their people hook and by crook
Tax cuts for rich friends and themselves
Maybe not to late yet, to help ourselves
Preaching on tv, we are in it together
Just a slight storm we have to weather
Children and the poor going hungry

Iets Wat Jy Klaar Gesteel Het
Gee my jou hand
Iets om vas te hou
Gee my jou hart
Iets om lief te he
Gee my jou lippe
Iets om myne besig te hou
Gee my jou wange
Iets om te maak bloos
Gee my jou voorkop
Iets om te soen
Gee my jou hare
Iets on my hande besig te hou
Gee my jou oë
Iets om in te verdwaal
Gee

Temples of Angkor Wat
sari of morn floats
draping temples with orchids,
as Angkor Wat blows its mist
to flame coned incense;
and in the still of homage
pilgrims wander with their gods.

Wat To Do On a Rainy Day
WHAT TO DO ON A RAINY DAY
When the Earth is cloaked in green
When each new leaf is alive, wet and waving
in the breeze,
What’s to do on such a rainy summer day?
I must try to dispel a certain lingering sense
of gloom
Because the scene out

Wat Were U Thinking?
My eyes were blinking every second I thought on you
Still sinking in a sea of what I thought was true
My heart shrinking at the answer that I heard from your lips
Still held my mind empty and my soul so stiff
What was I thinking when my eyes had first laid sight
And when my dreams all seemed
