    Symphonies

     

    White wings 
    I hear sing,
    a beautiful 
    versed hymn,
    playing the harp,
    symphonies,
    strumming each string,
    drawing attention, 
    noted within

    Tether

     

    Let's walk together 
    Hand in hand forever,
    floating like a feather
    Drifting into,
    the never never
    Hands bound together, 
    keeping the tether

    Wake Up

    Wake up world!

    You wanna sleep with the lie?!

    It makes you feel safe.

    Close your mouth, shut your eyes,

    listen and behave!


    Everybody in the right wing,

    Fight!

    Everybody in the left wing,

    Fight!

    Choose a side or get singled out! 

     

    Everybody in the country,

    Fight!

    Everybody in the world,

    Fight!

    Fight their wars, do what is right!

     

    Everybody in the cities,
    Fight!

    Everybody in the towns,

    Fight!

    Throwing fists in the streets.

     

    They don't have to do a thing,

    The populace silences itself.

    The world uses its hands,

    To cover over its own mouth.

     

    Use your mouth to,

    Speak!

    Use your ears to,

    Hear!

    Use your eyes to,

    Cicada

    I’ve been,

    Crawling,

    Under the dirt,

    Upon my abdomen.

    Searching,

    For a tree,

    That I will hang from

    And be set free.

     

    This skin I wear

    Encases me.

    When I’ve moulted.

    I will be free.

    I will wiggle off the confounds

    Of bone and flesh

    Of space and time

    And of birth and death.

     

    I was once

    A nymph.

    Living on the roots,

    Of the tree above me.

    I was so small and hungry then,

    But I have eaten enough now.

    It is time to harden,

    This old soft skin.

     

    I’m passing through,

    This knot,

    In the infinite,

    Line of life.

    Aligning myself with the inner body.

    Squirming out of this old biology.

    Going beyond our senses,

    And beyond our ...

    Essence of a Human Being

     

    Determination 
    Is not a citation
    It far outweighs,
    quotation 
    It focuses, 
    on motivation,
    pulled from, 
    Internalisation,
    at the centre
    of the soul,
    reservation,
    which feeds,
    the whole, 
    specification, 
    providing dynamite,
    Fuelled  calculation,
    and, realm,
    synchronisation

    AFRICA

    AFRICA 

     

    I Pondered 

    What's African 

    Time.⌚ 

    I came to 

    realization, 

    why Africa 

    is yet

     lacking 

    behind.

     

     Because 

    there's 

    no room for 

    orderliness. 

    So God 

    also use 

    African time 

    to answer us. 

    So sad 😔 

    What a pity 

    Africa! 😔 

    Are you 

    dead or slept 

    so deeply? 

    Wake up 

    now Africa! 

    Don't be 

    ignorant... 

     Alike the 

    other part of 

    the world 

    wake up! 

    Watch your 

    children and 

    their children
