Three blind mice

See how they run,
A round the V offices,
The chinese rat, the nkoko muzungu and the main,
Now that the cat is away,
Its time to play.

And Another Candle Lit


Today,
I look in the mirror,
Older than I was yesterday,
And it is,
The return of my birthday,
which you have made me remember.
It fills me with thoughts which
seems to be the general care of humanity to escape.

They say your birthday is just one day in the 365 day,
So just walk through it,
But this one my heart is heavy,
And I don’t know why,
But yet one thing for sure,
Another candle added.

When I was younger I wished I was older,
But now that am older,
I want to be younger,
The cares of this world weigh down on me,
The wiser I become,
The more dangerous it is for me
And yet one thing I know,
A candle I have added.

And now an older me,
Looking deep into the mirror,
Looking into the future,
Thoughts of the general care of humanity,
And yet, there are many more candles to be added,
It is no longer about that birthday cake,
But the candles burning out.
