Clemency Takawira Poems

Singleness of purpose
Will make you stumble and fall
But baby when you fall
Grab everything on your way down
...

I've witnessed my wife cry before
And I would know what was in store
I've seen her cry twice
Maybe thrice
...

The Principal, commanding:
'Smoke break
At the completion of each period.'
The English teacher, begging:
...

If industry persists in misfiring
And dispossesses you of employment
If inflation continues to rise
And deprives you of your needs
...

The pen and paper
Got sentimental tonight
And produced a masterpiece.
Each stroke of the pen
...

When an idea come
Whizzing through the head
Grab andit on paper
Millions of inventions are lost
...

Elephants should envisage
Condomising
Female rhinos must ponder
Imbibing
...
