my ostrich shell painted with
springbok and entangled daisies
blowing in icy wind
I drink yolk and albuminous
whisperings along rushing waves
we are soft dreams where
a fishing boat stood
buildings now deserted
¥
storehouse freshly painted in ochre
fishing nets drawn alleluia
dreams float with the sardines
drinking coke we celebrate catch
wind skips along Hout Bay shore
daisies clap wild petals yellow
shells smashed we eat boiled yolk
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I once knew a real awkward sort of bloke
Who didn’t know how to tell a good joke
He would start out just fine
Then forget the punch line
His dinners were free ~ hard-boiled thrown egg yolk
An egg is full of nutrition
To eat it is what I am wishin’
Too much cholesterol?
To hell with ya’ all
No yolk ~ no unwelcome emissions
Egg yolk tree oh egg yolk tree
Where would you be, oh egg yolk tree?
I have heard that you are full of fertility
I am looking for thee, oh, egg yolk tree!
Are you close to the sea, oh, egg yolk tree?
I am searching for thee, I am searching for thee
The one who told me is my cousin Lee.
Oh where do you reside, darling egg yolk tree?
Spotted dress respectable knee length
Disguises her many feathered fetishes
Fecked feeling clucky, red hen strength
Broods on bed of egg beak wet wishes
Wings tuck tight within delicate dreams
Shell inhibits image of sloppy slack yolk
Tiny tapping tells a time arrived redeems
Ruptured glue leak nesting box will soak
Eggy Peggy Sue oogles roosters commit
White eruption risen warm oven can cook
Pyriforms produced cushion a faithful sit
Cracked careless spill beneath silly chook
Attired in cabaret shake head resplendent
Requires stupid roosters follow new rules
Delicious derived from proud independent
Boss of her box where boys beg for jewels

Yellow, runny egg
On soldiers of white,
Light, bread.
Keeps me happy.
Though doubtful mind and scheme untold
The truth I will forever hold.
