NERVOUS CONDITIONSA
-
He looks down again from there where he stoodB
As though none of the sounds was understoodB
He stood and sat and stood and wanderedC
He stared at the window where the sun shoneD
Drops of sorrow from his Windows meanderedC
Down his cheeks and all hope was goneE
-
Life is so like drama where grammar is ignoredF
Where everything is fictitiousG
That with little makeup and mimicryH
One suddenly becomes a new characterI
With a new personality and friendsJ
But deep within they still bleed so deeplyH
That even death becomes sweeterI
-
He sat down again and held his pen firmK
Firm in his hand against the wet paperI
Then he wrote again Shembe is The WayL
His tears connected him with Him deeperI
He never thought of returning but retainingM
The current connection and circuitryH
Back down there is a set of nervous conditionsA
-
The bulls are fighting but the grass is dyingM
Chemical warfare is nothing but witchcraftN
Where wars are fought not militarilyH
But in the Laboratory weapons are forgedO
As he spoke to himself the sunset respondedP
The beginning of the end is marked byQ
Such nervous conditionsA
-
He looked again through the windowsR
As the sun rose towards the sunsetS
Tears reflected the twilight to the domeT
Of his head and his brain cells were excitedU
So he wrote again Shembe is the African MessiahV
But again he stood and read the book of Prophet IsiahW
As though to confirm the truth of his thoughtX
-
As he read even the days and nights there in AfricaV
Became so small so short and so quick to dieQ
The rains down there in Africa drip from the groundY
Up to the black skies where hell has been createdU
From the souls of Corona and coronary victimsZ
And that rain so thick as the blood of the innocentA2
For Africa has always thought she was at a feastB2
Alongside her fellow sisters yet she was the feastB2
-
But here where the man sits with fears of the futureI
He then remembers the promise by The African MessiahV
They will pay for all the cruelties they performed on your forefathersC2
Somehow he believes one day after Corona has leftD2
All else shall be nothing else but freedomE2
So he held his pen tighter and continued to writeF2
Shembe Lord of our fathers heal us in theseG2
Nervous conditions we are trapped inH2
-
After a while writing he left the world of imaginationI2
Came back to flesh and felt all the fresh painsJ2
Of the menstruation of his eyesK2
He walked out of his room watched the moonriseK2
And death sooner became sweeter than lifeL2
He burst into tears once again for realM2
He went back sat right and continued to writeF2
-
We will fight Corona to the last drop of our bloodU
To the last syllable of recorded time we shall stand togetherI
Not for fears but the tears we have shed by his spearsK2
He will die at the end but his footprints will be engravedN2
Corona has come to unite us all by dividing us allO2
Divided on united nervous conditionsK2
-
We will never forget the foot shakes instead of hand shakesK2
We will never forget the soccer matches that were never playedP2
The relationships friendships and lives that were terminatedU
Social gatherings and migration could never be toleratedU
Corona has brought the whole world to a stand stillQ2
But still I say by fire by thunder we will never go down without a fightF2
Let the family for once unite against these nervous conditionsK2
