Rob Rutledge
His hands are scarred,
Face is a mess,
Too long walking
Through the wilderness.
The bears are hungry
Wolves they howl,
The Levy's breaking
All will
Drowns.
Washed away by savage currents
Watching fallen suns go
Down.
The ego inside me is slowly but surely dying. Soon my eyes will awaken to their full, all knowing capacity. I will see the world exactly as it is, and that thought is comforting, yet terrifying. Being wise is a long, scary journey. But the light of wisdom outshines the darkness of ignorance. I will glow brightly, and illuminate this darkened space we live in and take for granted.
Africa!
Africa is crying
For a bed and some bread
Africa is trying
To find shelter or shed
The streets are now dormant
The children now sleep
With groaning tummies
They now Rest In Peace...
To those who live in houses with no walls on the busy streets of South Africa
May we know them
Let us acknowledge the female legends
Who brought us freedom with diligence

May we raise them
Let us give birth to imperfect perfection
Whom we'll love under any condition

May we be them
Let us be the change in the lives of others
Whereas we'll be sisters,aunts and mothers

Let us make a difference
Because we are women
This is to those who rock the cradle and rule the world indirectly!
