Kusukela emfudlaneni kuya ezinyonini
enanela izintaba
ithenda kakhulu
lokhu kukhuphukela ngakuwena
othulini lwezibani
imilomo evulekile
sizohamba
iqhwa elimhlophe lokusa
eqondisa umalusi
vula isandla
ngubani ozoyithatha
ebuntwaneni bethu
phakathi kwamadwala
phakathi kohlaza
kunengalo yehhashi
izokwethula
isithunywa sesithembiso sokugcina
ngokwesikhathi seminikelo
ngamazwi angagwegwesi
emnyango wengqondo
ulimi lwami oluncane lwe-meadow
umngani wami omnandi wasehlathini
ukungacabangi kwami ngeSonto best
ngiphulule kaningi
ngaphandle kokugqashula izimpondo
nokuthi yini ekhuphukayo
ukuthula komkhuleko.

Ukushaya
kwalasha omnyama
igagasi lafika
enamandla futhi efudumele
ama-broyant nos illusions
ngaphansi kwe-abers ephukile.
Yonke into yayinkulu
umkhuleko ugibele izikebhe
igagasi lashaya ubuso
kwakukhona ebhulohweni
kunezintambo ezibophene
kanye nezixhobo ezinwabuzelayo.
Lapho uvela esibhakabhakeni
kuphuma uphondo lwe-walrus
ubuhle buyasibamba
ukusibethela
ku-vertigo yokunxusa
umzuzu ocatshangelwayo wokunganaki.
Igolide nokukhanya kuthelwe phansi
ubudlelwano nayo yonke
umunwe wesizungu ebufakazini
ekubhomeni kwamashumi amahlanu
esibiza sibuyele emsebenzini
uthando olungaka lokupha.
