JUDGE XOYANA
FENG SHUI
There Was once Men
wearing Turbans,
Now its Called
Doek on Fleek,
prison awaits When
truth you Speak.
relax its Start of
the Week
Alas look how full
are Tarvens;
Girl's in robes
and boys in wrongs;
Money in tatters
and us in loan shark's
Tarven owner's And
mourners;
Poet's be
rebellious,
Let me start a
poem,
To my comrade's
let me sound conscious,
As long as the
rhyme will be our honours
So what do you
think?
Feng shui,
Fuck her without a
condom?
What about us,
kids and unemployed?
Army not deployed,
good guys and no killing in war;
Feng shui, she
gone my girl,
Friend! I am
opening myself to you;
Blue as the world
may seem,
Power to the
people!
Money must buy you
the land!
As government
said, we all shall eat bread.

THE BEST POEM ABOUT APPLES AND
SPEARS!
The title has got
nothing to do with a poem!
Who cares in this
life we living anyways?
The good die
young,
The bad live
longer and die of greed.
Even if you Justin
bieber,
Nothing lasts
forever.
Who knew we would
be dying of swine fever?
They give you
Apple's,
For your spears
And then they are
in control of your tears,
Like 9/11 tragedy
we make profitable movie's,
As life continues,
Leak your wounds,
Loved child, as it
was written in the furry tale of Sodom and Gomorrah!
Nobody gives a
fuck; tough luck!
Weep no more,
You not alone,
Prayers won't help
us much and we should have learnt from that by now!
In the system of
the evil,
We forced to name
our kids with clan names like Melville,
In order for them
to get jobs easily,
What happened to
Martin Luther king Dream?
As we vanish like
a stain from white sheet,
Shit, shit and
shit has been a language we all understand,
Buckets full of
it,
Trousers full of
it,
And lately poets
mouth is full of it,
Is it the
prophecies of Sobukwe or 27years of Mandela behind bars?
Let's make a joke
and laugh about it,
Our president
never got a formal education!
The Shepherd is on
drugs and horny,
Mind sexing
sheep's and pigs don't even hear the words he speaks,
Ventriloquist he
seems,
Under the sheets
his fit!
And obviously he
misplaced his leading stick,
So writers stick
to what they good at,
Writing books as
part of history,
That will never be
picked up by teachers and teach the teen's,
Bcz nobody gives a
shit, about the kids or future
Give them food and
send them to the streets and hustle donation!
Let them organise
a mob,
Carry machetes and
unlicensed guns kill each other,
And blame the
police for not doing their job.
Glued to your TV
sets,
As the President
tells you about raise in taxes,
And lame advice to
minimise yo expenses.
Come December
holidays with the false claims that Jesus is reborn,
People are forced
to spend their rands.
This poem will
never have happy ending if I don't feed you with incense!
Isn't it what we
all forced to love,
Yes love, nobody
gives a shit about love even the so called loved ones,
When the guns are
drawn,
Taxi man wants his
rands in ten,
They all look
outside for the saviour to come,
And I brought all
these things in one page,
To play my role in
this game of life,
Persuade you to
come with me as we change the world.
Now this poem of
apples and Spears end,
Khusela Judge Xoyana
DARK POETRY
When I say white
murderers and black mourners,
Bitter sweet
poetry and I lose civil rights movement members.
To regain
realists.
But when I say
black murderers and white mourners,
Best poetry award
and I get air played,
To regain false
friend's.
I am getting
closer to truth,
Scaring them
youth,
The brown colour
in my eye can testify,
That love is
indeed blind.
You say money is a
root of all evil but,
You sue me when I
use these lines without paying you cent,
Does my dark
colour give you that aggressive scent?
Black goat's,
Swear no oath,
To be accepted in
the kraal dominated by white goat's,
To a lions taste
buds they taste like other goat's.
As gold from the
soil comes out black,
So is the moon
give way to sun rise,
Man trade his life
for life after death,
Back then when
father's use to feed their son's,
Now the father's
got to stay fit so they can dig graves for their Son's.
Most of the
horrific shit happens when one is hungry,
And even Bee's
will kill you for their honey,
Government
official robbed man land and its not funny.
The cause of I
death can be traced on the lines I wrote.
Man must not bang
to beg,
I fail to
understand why would you compare the blood of Jesus with a wine?
Broken and divided
people look clumsy in these church uniforms.
Not much we can do
against the movement of the sun,
Than to give a
dignified burial,
Roof over the
young ones head,
It's filthy
manners feeding on bed.
World belongs to
all those who breath,
As we respect
ancestors for they were here before us,
An idea that
became a thought,
Now he's a man in
no man’s land,
What are you
fighting for?
