This Uniform is stitched with honour
thread by thread,
Not meant to fill towns with dread
This uniform is for love ,peace and security
Not meant to frighten those it guards
It’s worn to shield, to stand between the innocent and the unseen.


Wear it to safeguard homes and clear the skies
Not to abuse , nor to oppress
But to uphold and redress
So walk the path with careful tread ,
for in this uniform , much is said .

Don’t let the privilege of this uniform make you think otherwise
You are not extraterrestrials or some hardwired robots
You are still vulnerable men in camouflage
with offsprings and ancestors

This uniform belongs to no political entity
But to the country’s integrity and it’s sovereignty
This uniform must let the citizens face a whining government
This uniform must not be a government’s personalised property .

This uniform loses value when worn for inappropriate purposes.

There are wounds beneath her skin
Wounds you will never see.
She’s just a girl child but she has been to war ,
The war you will never know .

She flees the world through music
But these songs end
She battles the idea of fleeing forever
and live spiritually
But She says , i can’t be defeated .
Praise Ncube Oct 8
You were not my first love ,
But you are the one who hurt the most .
That was first degree ****** on my emotions, feelings and imaginations .

The Pencil that used to write you odes and amatory thoughts,
couldn’t believe the plot twist.
It cried the most , i had to tune it to political rhymes.

Just yesterday, it said , let’s write one last elegy for the dead love ,
Just one ballad of sorrow.
Praise Ncube Oct 8
Our love should stand the test of time
A test whose power many couldn’t stand
Keep the imagination alive
These ventilators will help it breathe

Time is ancient
It has seen many fall
Let’s surprise it
and change history
For they are not like us
Praise Ncube Oct 8
Minimise praying for gains
And watch what rains

Pray to lose
Pray to lose jealous, greed
Hate , selfishness, fear,
anger, stubbornness
bad attitude and unkindness

That’s the essence of spirituality.
Praise Ncube Oct 8
I once knew you as calm waters,
but then you became the storm,
wild and fierce in ways
I never imagined.

Now, I see all of you
not just the gentle tides,
but the waves that crash and roar.
And somehow, I love you more for it.

We are all evil
We hurt
We hate
You made me mad
And you said I'm bad
You thought I would just fly away like a bird
No , i love to revenge
Avenge
Submerge
And sabotage .


In his arms , Morpheus
We love to be
Those who hate to be
Become what we all wish to be
We then hate them for becoming what they worked to be

Don't agree with me that you are evil
But confess that you are evil
Without agreeing that you are evil
But you can't runaway from the fact ,
that you are evil .


We are good
We love
Peaceful like a dove
You gave me food when i was starving
You rejuvenated my energy
You thought I would just forget you like that
No , i love back
I help those in need too
Love
Peace
Kindness


In Heaven we love to be
Being good we endeavour to be
We wrestle with the voice ,that says , don't be ,
Peaceful we long to be ,
So it shall be .
