Daddies Lap


Daddies Lap
For so long you’ve been running,
Searching for the unknown, living me behind, locking me
At the back of your pick-up truck, rejecting my love, my comfort.
You’ve been naming me names, denying my existence,
I’ve been watching, hoping you’ll change your mind, hoping you’ll come back to your senses
Day after day
I waited patiently, thinking you’ll remember me, thinking you’ll
Remember the days you were once alone, the days i used to whisper,
Share my secrets and listen to your heart.
I see you day and night
Wearing a mask, hiding behind the glasses, embracing the attention,
Hiding from me, creating a new identity in return of my acceptance,
Because you want to be known, make name for yourself, and be accepted,
Buying me with recognition, blaming the past and other people
 For your today’s choices
Going up and down wanting to be fulfilled
Today i am saying, I am here, i’ve been here,
And i will be here when you choose life
Because i am your God and you are my child,
I’ve chose you among others, anointed you with oil, and choose you
To be the voice to the singers, love to the rejected, comfort to the abandoned
Life to the dead and silence to the depressed.
Psalms 139 ( about what God thinks of you)

History of Poetry

History of Poetry
The name Poetry is  from the Greek poesis meaning 'making' or 'creating', has a long history. Poetry as an art may out date literacy itself. In prehistoric and ancient societies, poetry was used as a way to record cultural events and tell stories. Poetry is amongst the earliest records of most cultures with poetic fragments found on monoliths, rune stones, and stelae.

It has been proven to be one soul breath taking way to accommodate every culture, especial the soul culture, poets speak their minds, reveal truth through poetry. It has been around for years. Every generation is adding up some stuff that are working for their generation. I am one of the people who are writing about the stuff that we facing in our days,
The oldest surviving poem is the Epic of Gilgamesh. The poem, based on the history of King Gilgamesh, was written around 3000 BC in Sumer, Mesopotamia in cuneiform script on clay tablets
Ancient societies such as the Chinese Shi Jing developed canons of poetic works to ritual, as well as aesthetic, importance. Recently, intellectuals have struggled to find a definition that covers the entire poetic compass from the differences of haiku to Shakespearean to slam poetry. Tatakiewicz, a Polish historian of aesthetics, wrote in The Concept of Poetry "poetry expresses a certain state of mind."
Aristotle's Poetics describes three genres of poetry: epic, comic and tragic. Aristotle's work was highly influential throughout the Middle East during the Islamic Golden Age, then through Europe during the Renaissance. Later, aestheticians described poetry to have three major genres: epic, lyric and dramatic, with dramatic holding the subcategories tragic and comedy. During early modern Western tradition, poets and aestheticians sought to distinguish poetry from prose by using the understanding that prose was written in a linear narrative form and used logical explication, while poetry was more abstract and beautiful.
Modern theorists rely less on opposing prose and poetry as to focusing on the poet as an artist. Intellectual disputes over the definition of poetry had erupted throughout the 20th century resulting in rejection of traditional forms and structures of poetry, coinciding with questioning of traditional definitions of poetry and its distinction between prose. More recently, post-modernists began to embrace the role of the reader and highlight the concept of poetry; incorporating its form from other cultures and the past

I kiss the lips

Light it, hiding in his eyes, because he calms my soul,
he calms me down, and claim my dignity,
I kiss his lips
because  he helps me dream, and inspires my thoughts
The breath that comes shows me the unknown,
 Imagine the impossible, claim the stolen visions and
Helps me to dream again.
When i kiss him in the dark, he gives me pleasure and strengthen
My strength
When i kiss him,
I dream the impossible; see the shining stars in the cloudy weather
His breath makes me want to kiss him again and again
When i kiss him
I forget the past, presents
i hardly see the depth of the present, for he only shows me
The future, what it will bring not what it might.
Man, you've got to try him,
in the dark he's gentle,
in the light he's invisible,
in public he's a shame,
I kissed Him because
He brings me joy, excitement that i never thought it existed.
Now that the restroom is too small for our little world,
Now that the dark can’t handle our intimate you slowly coming out, kissing me all over,
you are my weakness, you are no longer my roll on,
My arms can’t let you go,
my lips are longing for more
And my body desires you more than yesterday
I can’t escape from your presence
Now that i want to release you,
 You go behind me, break boundaries and kiss me in from of my pastor,
Man, I want to let you go,
But my emotions are saying "yes"
Yes and my body can’t live without you.
you stole my reality naturalism and made it yours.
I kissed your lips for my pressure,
And you impregnated me in return,
Now that I wants to escape
You lock every door, and lock me in.
I want to go, I want to return to my me.
i want to let you go, but I’m addicted into your pink soft
Lips,
i crave for your presence, i crave for more of you, for I no longer own my life you do,
I kissed his lips for fun, in return He swallow my pride.
Cigarette you my addiction, I am addicted you

Why we feel week when we fail

Why we feel week when we fail
When we fail to achieve our goals , we usually feel week, inadequate, and powerless, we feel like losers, I’ve noticed that after  two years ago after I failed to go to university, most of my close friends got school, but my thongs delayed and I end up not going to school, I felt devastated, angry at myself, I end up giving up what I was planning  study, it’s not like I gave up on it, I just felt that it let me down, so I told myself that I was going to  change a career, guess what!, the dreams we had and gave up on them, a pierce of us left with them, and that’s a reality, we don’t think about that when storm comes, but it is true,. I started not to care about what people think of me, and started to do things my way, it was not satisfying but it felt great, (to be continued)
What happens when we can’t take the fail or fault?
what we usually do when we fail, we give up and blame other people
for whatever that is happening to us,others end up running to drug, and letting
their lives run into grains.
what i can tell people to do is to continue with their dreams, if they fail, they must try again, and again

Life sentence for killers


Life sentence for killers
South African people are tired of seeing killers going up and down the streets few days after they break the law, this matter was shown after the Community of Kayamandi, Stellenbosch, just outside Cape Town, took law into their hands by beating three well-known criminals to death. These well-known criminals were taken by police officers after they were badly beaten by the community, and no one was arrested. These three teenagers robbed and stub women who were going to work early on the morning. They took all their belongings and ran; the community heard that they were around on Monday 14 march 2011, and went and beat them, no one bothered to call the police because they had enough of the police officers who always protect the criminals. And the police officers were reminded about what happened few years ago, when the same people rape a 9 month’s old little girls, and they are still around. On that same day, those boys were reported dead, the cause of their death was the deep wounds. “I am glad they are finally out of outlive, I am sure we will be free, we will not be afraid to walk around with our treasured items because of them “one of the community leader said. People think that government does not care about what they think, since they are from the small township. People believe that crime was never part of this community until their kids were exposed to all kinds of stuffs this is not the community they know, “we used to be one community that is full of Ubuntu ‘humanity’, my child was your child in those days, I do not know what happened to our children, it is getting worse and worse”, one of the residence commented.



The community believes in justice, they want no bail for killers and rapist, they believe that people should suffer the consequences, “if the law does not do it, the community will do”, Community member said.



People of this small town only want the best for their town, and they will not rest until all the criminal are put into cell where they belong



Journalism today – tomorrow – in South Africa

Journalism was all people had to in the past to report, mostly papers , since the technology is growing faster now, and South Africa is one of the most growing countries, news are also growing .”News used to be for only grownups but now I can read them, because they are interesting” a University student said. in the past news were only informative, but now since most of the people have internet, things are easier to so many people, especially who are from urban areas, because they are exposed into lot of things like social media, example face book, twitter and other social networks, so most of young people read news online, and It is simple to them. The journalism today is very interesting, in so many ways because it is entertaining, informative and controversial. It is informative because we are being informed about disease that exits, like the elephant leg woman, who was on T.V and whole other things, we get education on line .Journalism today is more focused on education and that is what most South Africans need. And most of the politicians used social media for campaigns and it is very effective. But on the other side it is controversial in a way that it create debates, and leave things hanging most of the times. Entertainment is what brings people together and we all love to have fun, so journalism today introduced the other side of the news like entertainment. If it was not for journalism we would not know who is here in South Africa, doing what with who, who is new on the music industry, which movies are out, and we would not even be inspired to become who we want to become. Journalism is more productive and makes people want to know more and dream again.’”Come on, who does not read news in our days, some of our politicians are so entertaining, I always read news so that I will be updated about them, and what did they say these week, who is making headlines, news today are interesting than before. Everything is online in our days, we have social networks like twitter, face book and whole other social networks that we almost all in, so there is really no excuse for people for not reading news, both young and old are exposed to these network” Thokozile said. I think the Journalism of the future (tomorrow journalism) will be paperless, since everyone will be reading online. Reporting will be only controversial and entertaining, there won’t be more of informative news, it will lose its heart, because of the social networks, that is where people like us will come in and save the journalism world, and bring back the heart of it. I suggest that we as the South Africans we can focus more on the informative, I am not saying entertainment and controversial is bad, but information bring life out of the people and entertainment brings joy and unity, so if we can balance them, we could bring the Journalism heart into its place.

KISS GOODBYE

Thou said
I thought it was my imagination, when
I saw it coming,
I felt the warm, intimate air, coming closer
And closer and closer into my left side of my face,
I gave him the instance and manner of His presence

What a pleasant activity to termination
His face was contentment,
What a surprise kiss!

My mind was gratified, since I agreeable
Him first…
My facial expression, show it all, when my
Eyes started un ending blinking,
He motion to my left eye, and wipe the
Frozen tear,
His fellows observe attentively
As he took chocolate in his pocked, and give it to me,

It felt like, it was my first kiss ever…
As we both gave an innocent smile, it was
Indeed
Oh, I was so sad when it was time for me
To go, he emotionally kissed my hand,
And motioned his hands with a fake and unpleasing
Goodbye, he was sad,
But we both knew that we’ll see one another,
Soon, before the next flight!
When the car was in motion, he gave me a quick smile
And say good-bye, my love in broken English

Kiss goodbye, I smiled
Kiss goodbye I thought
Kiss goodbye, he’s gone
Kiss goodbye, for the reality has taken place, and cross rational will never make sense
