Khoisan
Nuclear gnashing
It
eliminates
everything
in it's wake
still these
unconscious
idiots
contemplate
more champagne
for their next date
while the rest of us
gnash teeth as the earth shakes.

Khoisan
Biased
I cannot afford to pay
the ferryman shrugged
so the POOR bard
who so wanted to go
all the same had to remain.
1 dollars cost me 18Rand ?
18Rand buys 1and a half loaves of bread always shared.

Skyline Words
I always loved the sky.
From its bright sunny blues in the morn’
To its oranges in the evening
To its pinks at early dawn
To the warmth of the sun
To the cool of the rain
To the thunder in the distance
To the snow and the hail
To the fluffy clouds in the day
And stars that shine at night
To the moon and the planets I
Couldn’t reach if I tried.
I always loved the sky.
For I could always become a part of it.

Love
Some say,
love is a curse.
Some say,
love is a blessing.
For me,
it's a spark in the dark,
reason to rise,
and be alive.
Love don't need to be just romantic....
Familial love is beautiful and pure too...

Cherry Blossom
Petals in the breeze,
swirling around trees,
cherry blossom dance.

Within Me
Looking around,
hoping to find
the answer.
A daffodil’s rhythm,
with the wind,
bathed in sunlight,
until it blew away.
I seek the Almighty,
only to realize,
the answer is within me.
My pal,
the answers are within you
