Umhlaba wobusuku
ngesikhathi sewashi
idla inhliziyo
i-tinnitus
ukuqala ukungabaza nezinhlungu
zomlimi ompofu
ku-imbroglio yokuxhumana
ukuhlubula umsindo ngaphansi
ukugrafu umsindo ongenhla.      
 
Lo mhlaba oqanjiwe
eGuinness of minimal art
ihlala ivuliwe
ubukhona bamaphupho
ehlukunyezwa umsindo wengxoxo
emajazini ansundu engqondo
ezisongwe ekwanelisekeni
yokusatshalaliswa kwemiklomelo
ngesikhathi sikaJohane uMbhabhathizi.      
 
Kade kukhona
ulwandle oluhlehlayo
esihlabathini
imiluko yezinwele ezigundiwe
umhlwenga wehhashi
wanyamalala phakathi kwamagagasi olwandle
ukuxhumana nomoya kanye nama-ether suckers
wabutha ingxenye yemfihlakalo
uhhafu weparele elimnyama lezingibe.         
 
Ekuphakameni i-rose yayikhomba
ngephunga le-algae eluhlaza
umphumela wolimi
ebambe umlomo ogcwele
amabhamuza e-methane
ezingeni lamakamelo okugeza
yabe isikhukhuleka emkhathizwe
isivunguvungu esikhala impisi
phambi kwegagasi eliphakeme.      
 
wamphendula
amakhwela ezokuphepha
kucatshangelwa umlando weRelève
eqhubeka emasangweni omuzi
ukwesaba abahlaseli
ngokuchofoza amabhuzu abo ensimbi
amatshe e-cobblestone anomswakama wemizila emnyama
ngephunga eliwumshayabhuqe
ukusika umphimbo we-maskless.      
 
Hhayi kude nalapho
ngaphansi kwe-gilding of reason
isisulu sokuntula isineke sokulinda
UPierre omncane wabuka   
i-palpitations yokugcina yekhandlela
umngane wewashi eliphuzile
wachitha eklinya intamo imisangano yokukhohlwa
inhlonipho inikezwe lowo osezansi kocingo
wayelazisa itshe elincane elimhlophe elimhlophe.
