Neighbors And Bustards - Poem from the book “Cries From A Troubled African Nation”
In a dream I saw a man
Struggling to find his way in darkness
I saw him walk past his neighbor`s house
I saw him stop and I saw him look around
Then my eyes saw what his eyes saw
His neighbor, a strong heartless man
A maniac, a ruthless bastard
He had tied his wife and children onto a tree
With a thorny log
He flagged his wife and children
“Help them”, I shouted
Because he was in my vision
The man could not hear me
He started walking again
“I cannot mingle in my neighbor`s affairs”
This is what he said to himself
As for the neighbor`s wife and children
Non of them ever walked
The neighbor broke their bones,
SADC, how long shall you let us down?
We are helpless
And we cannot defend ourselves
What you haven’t done before
Do it for the first time
