Fie foe fum

Fie foe fum,
I see with my private eye
Cloud-nine dies high
The ganja farmer
The Buffalo soldier
The Lyrics amour,
Tongued tooth like verbal assassins
Impregnation maniacs
Record liked vibrations
Sen Sei's since that day
Vibes brothel
Rhymes cartel
Cant tell
the difference.
Between you and I
Fie foe fum,
I smell a rat hum,
a hymn in the sky.
This is the song of,
The professional bum.

Would you rescue me?
When i Listen to the stars shining inside our hut
When the flicker of light flutters inside me when you’re around

Would you dance with me after the rescue?
When the beach call is no longer a tall order
When the fancy umbrellas and colourful straws help us to down the sun

Would you fix and mend me mindfully rescue ranger?
When the danger in me is wild with desire
When the fire flings our guitar strings together

P untitled

How can you be so far?
When I tear inside
When all I want is you close
Right by my curve and my side

Picket my fence P, pickle my heart
Iron out the strain
Don’t leave me,
Hung out in disdain.

From here to there where you send sunshines
On ray boats piercing my heart stupid
With your wickedly missiled smiles
Elusively lucid in splendor

Eish, I am a moron in tongues
When you lash me with your happy voice

Catch my Pink Faya P

Dreadlocked in my deadlock around the block
I acted nutty; professing scintillated scents of your soul
Down Jeppe I hopped happily towards Bree Street, P.
Past Chicken Licken, towards Mandela’s Bridge
My thoughts of you never ever went astray like,
Bob Marley’s bright and sunny day
Potbelly smiles
GuavaJelly hides
Pineapple asides
Stolen rub-a-dubs
Catch my fire
Red rants
Catch your fire in mine
Sweet Pink bongo
Dread culture
P.
Catch my fire

Four better days P.

He wonders in his haze
Sauntering around maize fields
He erects everyday in her gaze
Walled in and porous he flirts with P
Through a Moria of peep holes
Whispering notes sent silently in between canals
Floating to her hiding spot on her island under the blue gum tree
Sometimes those messages on spring’s petals are direct as metal and free
‘In sickness and memory we will never be apart babes,
As we decipher the alphabets that string the strata in our hearts together’
He seems to say each day with different words as he slaves and prays
For better days

When it rained, P.

When it rained all my inner eyes could reach
Is you and i by the seaside
My pride was in sync with the symphony
Of the rain drops
playing with the surfaces
outside my warm cocoon
and my joy
cuddled my small coughs
as my tv flickered with noise
poised with nostalgia
i picked up the phone,
and dialed your o eight two
all starry eyed i ask
Oh my heart answer the phone;
Please P.

P.


P, I wanted your rose to kiss me softly
Right here where I clearly see,
My Sweetest Soweto memory
My three million lullabies betwixt goodbyes
Leave me wondering beyond yonder
Whether I am just playing with prayer
Or in a good way you’re just slaying me textually
Slicing my brevity away

P, My taboo, and my déjà vu
Downtown you are my brownsugar
on the eastside my chocolate cake
on the west my ice cream dream
and everywhere else my eyes see no one else but you
And you know I don’t want it to sound like that
Not in a bad way atleast, but you keep me mellow and sane
