Malikhanye - Paperback

by Mxolisi Nyezwa (Author)

i have been thinking of my life

as a man who is busy drowning

with no hope of martyrdom

or staying alive

all i can make of my country

is a sulphurous compound

a black room with two gigantic stars

as thoroughly silent as corpses

and during the many storms in my life

what happened?

what really happened?

during those nights

what did i really see?
