Never was my word
Never shall I hang up the jersey and quit the game
Never shall I unlock the padlock that clinched my heart
And allow any soul to build a little hut in it
...
Jozi, my Jozi
Let me tell how I see thee through my window,
From the Spiralled high floor obliterating my sorrow,
With clouds bruising the blue sky that dressed thee,
...
Like philosophers who failed to define philosophy
But except only in action
Love expects failed to describe love
But used my mistress as an icon
...
I grow up in War trying to hold the pain,
Struggled to accommodate contentment,
And how could love feel like this again
Like a lifeless dream waiting for luck to salvage.

DUET OF LOVERS
I quench my thirst by the saliva from her wetter kiss.
I fill my heart with delight from the fountain of her love.

The indigenous Africans says I'm psychologically colonised by western tradition
But failed to see that my custom is alienation of individualism
My mind is not bound by faith and believe written on pages
My philosophy is based on reality and the sense of ages
...
I think love lost its supremacy
How the muscular love could be conquered by a fresh boned lady,
I remain the ignored voice of love amid the doomed hearted land-dwelling.
Where all who seek it remain unattended,
...
How beautiful love can be;
With its distance underestimated
And its destiny unknown,
Neither prophesized by the great prophet
...
From a poet to a poem
These hands performed artistic ink work
So delicate and flexible like a plastic fork
...
At the point I am I choose to remain
Because love like this has to be retained
The passed shall see me no more
Because underestimated distance travelled can't be backspaced;
