You are Fierce!
When you put your mind to it, You are STRONG
Firmness and stable....worry not
You are in my hand an art piece Engraved
You will displace Kingdoms
I wish your mind would let you in on a little secret
You are Fierce!
Substance and Fire, You are a force to reckon with
That’s why blending in will never work
You feel uncomfortable; sometimes you interpret it as Rejection
Oh you have no idea, You are Fierce!
Greatness building up pressure an Edifice
People are not prepared for what you are
Your difference upsets and confuses them
So they try and sideline you
Call you eccentric or sometimes schizophrenic
Your mind does tangents and curves that the average
Mind cannot decipher
Your conversation picks ideologies apart
Breaks down mysteries, philosophies are solved like basic equations
They sit with you and change the subject constantly because they have trouble
Keeping up
You are people of Impact and Influence
I will give you divine strategies to Advance and take Dominion
You are fierce
He opened up the Vaults of heaven and specifically picked
Up one revolutionary idea and placed it in your hands
Weapons and tactics for mass destruction
You will advance the Kingdom and take Territories
You will plunder the enemy wherever you go
It bugs me that you are wasting time consulting
Everything we can see, feel and touch started off as an idea
Bill Gates has one of those; the Wright brothers oh hey let me
Bring it home Enhanced Communication Network (ECONET)
Used to be one of those
You are Force, You are FIERCE!
Beloved better believe it
Your ideas are God birthed
All you are was God engineered move into your place of assignment
Get ready to Divide and Scatter as you Wage War
He has given you power, Go in and possess
You are Force.
You are way ahead of the mass
You are science and discovery waiting to be explored
You channel discovery wherever you are because he has made you Kings and Priests
You motivate thought patterns and thinking strategies
Manufacture quality, weapons and Tactics
Influencing Communities
You are FIERCE!
Your words are bridges from people’s fears to their dreams
You inject Promise into the lives of those around you
You are WARRIOR, You have Vigour and Potency
The Harder the enemy comes against you the harder he will fall
You are FORCE; I need you to see this
You were born for such a time as this
You are FIERCE!
Ideas are the airlines that catapult us into the air
Action is what steadies the flight
Get your faith linked to Clarity and focus
Destination Purpose, work hard and you will land safely
The Land I am taking you to is fertile
Beloved, You are fierce!

Gone and Lost
He’s gone they said
A bullet ripped his shirt front
And he fell backwards
Sprawled out, diagonally, hexagonically
Recklessly singled out
All the way across the street the bullet
Went out of its way
Targeting him alone amongst the mass
Face up that’s how your son last saw the sun
He’s gone, your little boy is gone
Not a hero of victim of war so no honour
Crowns his death maybe pity or wreaths of flowers
At breath taken so early
Gone too soon
Your little boy is gone
Help me, help me
My girls are gone
My daughters were taken
Robbed from me, snatched away
I’ve been cut down, stripped
My heart twisted it bleeds, it bleeds
Even in the silence it screams
Bring back my girls
Help me, help me make sense of these
Injustices
How in broad daylight we sit and watch our worlds collapse
These are not natural disasters
Someone do something
I sit, and I watch the road
Mind numbed by grief
Holding on to a shred of hope
That by some miracle somehow
I’d see a flicker of a dress
I will catch a glimpse of an afro there
And know with joy, with confidence
My girls are back
But alas
These are not natural disasters
These are not passing storms
These are marks, scars of men and women
Whose hearts have inhabited hell and become
All because someone else committed
A crime that they themselves will not pay for
Or be punished for
Now the world is no longer a safe place
For our little girls and little boys

Broken wings
She had wings once, was used to spreading them wide
And flying, soaring high over mounts and plains
Her world, a tapestry of good things knit together
Days recorded as good better or best
Starlit her face glowed under crystallite chandeliers put
Just so they hang pretty making up the piece by piece
Confection of a day made amongst the stars
The stuff of dreams coming together
He looks into her brown eyes and speaks so sweetly
She smiles melting into each word
I do, I have loved you since the first day I saw you
And I see myself loving you more as each day comes
Sthandwa Sami I love you
She had wings once
Before storms went violent in her world
Monsoons and winds going wild till they
Marooned her in deep darkness
Sending her hurtling through the sky
Landing awkwardly, bruised and wounded
Doesn’t he love her anymore?
His words are harsh, they fight incessantly
Her tears marr the window panes of her vision
Weather forecast is blurry
Family relations scream partly cloudy with signs of rain
Friends gone with the wind
The money tree dried out a long time ago
Whatever could go wrong has
And all that’s left is the pathway that pain
Has paved to her heart
Her wings are broken, she does not fly
All she sports now are the broken wings
But see, his eye is on the sparrow
He made her beautiful
Perfected all that concerned her
Gave the good but used the bad as a tool in his hands
To bandage and bind up broken hearts
Shattered spirits and festering wounds
She would have died if he hadn’t reached out and found her
The minute she stopped looking in
And trusted him by looking up
That in drawing closer she would encounter him
At his feet all her tears bottled up
Becoming a sacrifice worthy of war
So from heaven he thundered smoke spewing from his nostrils
Enraged
He rode on the clouds to the rescue
All infinity could not contain him
His wrath filled the surface of the deep
Questioned situations and dared the challenges in her life
To try his patience, beat down storms
Dared the Nightmares in her life to try say boo
And caused the winds in her life to cease
All he said was peace be still
She had wings once
She has wings once more, spreads them tentatively
Takes off and soars
Confidence growing with each height she scales
He kneels in front of her
The trickling of tears down his cheeks
The gentle reminder that she loves this man
And in forgiveness her world is returned to sanity
Letting go she closes her eyes
And she soars higher, and higher and higher
But for the scars
You would never know of her broken wings
