Portal for Writers and Poets in South Africa
The Lord said to the wicked
Why you recite my commandments;
And hate to be control by it.
You read the bible,
And after you don’t do
What the bible has said;
You hate what the Lord,
Has commanded;
You refuse what the bible instruct,
But you study it;
God will destroy you forever.
The bible says; do not steal
But you steal;
And commit adultery.
Cracks. Healthy fiction –
Pomegranates. Troubled life.
Bleeding fruit. Cement.
Diary of Salt Lake –
Passage into Bethelsdorp.
Myths of beloveds.
Roses. Stars. They hover –
Suffering has a numbed womb.
Cross the seas threshold.
Honed crystalline grief –
Life in the Northern Areas
Quotes luminous cores.
Houses should have dogs –
Walk, dig holes or cha-cha with them.
You’ll relive childhood.
