Gehasie

If you don't understand, my apologies, but this simply doesn't work in any other language and is written by an Afrikaner for Afrikaners. Van waar gehasie? wat 'n konfrontasie gee my net 'n bietjie spasie dan bou ons 'n nuwe nasie wat is die okasie? ek soek net 'n ou plasie Welkom by my opstel dis nog nie 'n opstal gee my net 'n bietjie grasie dan bou ons 'n nuwe nasie wat is die geval? die mensdom word heel mal Is ons nog verlore trap ons nog mense spore gee my net 'n bietjie ruimte dan hoef ons...

If only words could tell

I wish words could tell but they can't Between the Absolutely Real and the words of science lies a realm of wonder that seeks to be found But the gate is narrow and almost none can enter You have to loose yourself to take rebirth there but the many seek it not and none look to see It's always been there but words lead them astray even my own Sign in to see full entry.

As jy maar kon weet

Ek sien 'n mooi vrou met 'n direkte kyk en onverbloemde seerkry wat woorde kan weef en kwaste laat sweef In my spieël is 'n man met 'n harde blik en 'n woestheid wat nie wil weg wat woorde wil vergeef met kwaste wat streef Iewers tussen ons was daar vir 'n tyd 'n elektroniese empatie met woorde geweef en vergeef en kwaste wat streef om te sweef As jy maar kon weet hoe absoluut gewoon my elke dag omgaan met anderwêreldse dinge wat in my draal wat hierdie een soms geheel laat verdwaal Ek trek...

Strange Lady

I met a beautiful strange lady, she made me nervous...(Men at Work) I couldn't tell her what I wanted I couldn't risk the holy infidels's wrath I was already a martyr at home getting told to go and live in the location to this my brother can attest we swam a different river and against the stream in the light of the gates of heaven we stood trembling before the guardians they asked us for our souls for they have lost theirs we turned around and came back to earth were we had friends Sign in to see full entry.

The Myth of Mada

Mada Nomdak came full circle to his place of birth, Nede finding there the children of Haon lost, wandering aimlessly in closed circles seeking his sister wife whom they hid for they knew of their return and fate What they knew not; Those two will live a thousand years to come so now? They wait for the purification rite and then? Alone, they each other will seek and find to start again the game of life Sign in to see full entry.

Bread of Shame

How much do you want to pay for Bread of Life in other peoples blood? To whom do you now pray for Bread of Shame taken from anothers' plate? 'tis now dusk and soon the night for you old slithering serpent no return Sign in to see full entry.

No More

Having called you to my door I'm left here stranded evermore frozen in an older way there is no way I can repay what was once something so beautiful has become a phrase so questionable Where is this road now leading you when sense and manner has turned hue left aside by those who sought the rain only felt by those who know this pain and I wonder... who the puppeteer is now behind this door I'll crawl the floor and call no more Sign in to see full entry.

Vensters

"Kyk hoe huil die vensters" (gesing deur Laurika Rauch/geskryf deur?) Hierdie deuntjie draai deur my gedagtes van alleen wees en reën van wolke en van oë wat nie meer seewater maak van klagtes tog bly daar 'n sweempie van bewoë Ek los dit en dit maak 'n draai wie weet waar dit in die onbewuste waai my Heelal Herder voel dit wel as ek vir Hom my klag vertel Dit reën na binne in my wieglied kraal waar al die ou karakters in my siel rondmaal sonder dat ek een van hulle hoef te haal kom ry hul my...

Give me your Blackened Soul

Have you ever considered......been there, done that, got the mug and got mugged too. Tell me something new. Ask me questions for which you have no ready, predisposed answers. Tel me lies and hopes and fears and I'll take away everything you hold dear. What will you get in return? Your unadulterated mind itself, your soul, pure, pristine since the beginningless beginning and wide awake. Sign in to see full entry.
