I SAW IT THEN
I saw it then, I saw the mountain ran
It was not a dream but in plain picture
With bleeding blood gushing through its nose
I saw the fruitful womb of the mountain
Refuse to born pieces of rock
I can see the tiny route where the fullboom light
Shed into the mind of too dark cave
There the earth fell beneath the leg
Of moles, rock siblings then traveled to valley
Where their decisive decision kept them under
The blind sight of western desert
I saw hill staggered like wrestler
Who wants to break record of Tyson
Beneath its abdomen a eye watching
Around and across the sahara desert
Where land blooms of dust and wirling sand
Let the eye came down to my grassy roof
And spy the gullible head and survellance on wrinkle toe
Of bloods cry horrible choosen headas
O! Africa savannah you filled the dam
With fragrance saint of bitter odour
You come and say along mind that flute
Dramatic sound blared out of tropical organ
I see the unity divides the nudity of slack black
Who denied the swiftly race of difference races
We are gentle like python, our breast wicked like cobra
Who is that black man leant over the fence?
Is he tried to check my attitude
Or propelling my caurasal?
I saw the black man coming out of black moon
Setting later in the night of hood day
He had filled up with coal dust
Smelling like brew leaves
And gradually clean without cleansing himself
And eventually neat up like bright sky
He was even a skybond
As know one can tell who he was
Then I know everyman is on equal tall
No man bellow no man taller
As one is one other is other
So I want white cloth covers my black nude
And my black nude covers by white towel
As the hill that has eye
Would fling me and watch the man
With cruel face that can kill
Those detractors that trail us
