Okuncane futhi kuntekenteke
efika nje emhlabeni
wayengenawo amehlo
okwezulu kuphela.      
 
Ilahlwe ngokushesha
esangweni lomshado
wabuyela emsebenzini
eshaya ithayela ngeminwe.      
 
Isiphithiphithi esenza abavakashi baphenduke
njengeqhwa entwasahlobo
uleyisi wawundiza
izinsimbi ezinjalo okwamanje.      
 
Nebala wabanjwa
wadansa izimpawu zothando
ukwenza ukubamba kwegatsha kube okwakhe
ukuthi ekuseni kwatholakala ngokucacile.      
 
Isikhala esingenhla
wabuyisela imimese
uphonswe empukaneni
ngokumelene nezindonga ezimpunga zokukhohlwa.      
 
Isikhala esingezansi
lobumnyama elihlotshiswe
ivuleke kakhulu
izingalo zakhe ezinamagatsha.      
 
Abantu be-elves
uchofoze inkinobho "isiphetho"   
amaphiko aqhaqhazelayo
landela ukuhlukahluka kwe-Real.      
 
Imahhala futhi iyaqwasha
unina wezimpi nokuzalwa
kwavusa i-miasma yokuphindaphinda
emzileni wosuku olusha.      
 
Hasta luego
i-ampelopsis phakathi kwamazinyo
gcoba amakha nezinwele ezinyaweni ezithandekayo
kwaba ukuphaphama okukhulu kwengqondo.
