The love to be here and out there
Brought us even close to the exit
Awaiting the appointed time
a source of reechoing an integral part of the African tradition, belief and way of life, merging it with the changing currents of this world and the African view on the here after through the means of poetry recitals and writings.
The path of angels travails
And to men who walk that path
With difficulty I give honour
It will seem to men as though they have all
And but will struggle with owning a genuine heart
Movements of muscles beneath the groin
Slowly erecting standing not on any feet
Through the food she ate he'll know this take
As she sits quietly by you as a tale you tell not
Waiting for you to act to touch what you have
The night has drawn nigh
The awakening of the morning
While some wait unending for a catch
Others shake in a haste around
Waiting and viewing the calm sky
Shaking and expecting the right guy
A place far away
A place called home
The home I found
In the thickest of the night
On the most fragile string
On which I now hang
I noticed your glitter
It was the only one I saw
It was bright like home
Where the navel was buried
I will not forget my home
Like this glitter I just saw
I will strike the dusty earth
With a planting stake there
And behind leave seeds
Fertile seeds which can ever grow
Flowers and fruits in the desert
I have called you for long
To make you part of mine
Here I am with you
With a piece of you unknowingly
We are all strangers
marching on to a place unknown
I met you already here
Am I a stranger to you
But there ...
Where you will also go
and find me already there
I am no stranger
is it the mark I now bear?
A message went out
without any reply
A call fell on live ears
and none paid heed to pick
A song of death was announced
and she did not hear the phrase: "my condolences"
And they that keep their promises of hope
shall have the heavens renew their strength
Come master builder come
Through to the end be the guide
Come fountain of love come
The upwell of terror and hate hide
Come from far and near come
That the dream of Amerigha be seen
Blessed be Amerigha oh blessed
Let every tongue and tribe resing
