my eyes and you

Praise worthy figment of this bards aspirations
Potentially awesome "before" picture
Dangerously perched perfection atop pedestal
Of nubian epitome.
See you as I do.
Feel as I feel when you smile
Or speak or cry or laugh or smile or sit or sleep.
Your everything, inspires admiration.
Know this, know it to be true.

Temple of thyself made by ancient hands and brought to life by human hearts
Human loins, through whose collission came about your birth.
Soulful creature, do not wonder the hills of life with sorrowful intent
Do not shed a tear for anything less than an entity , a force of nature such as yourself. 

Look in the mirror and be content. 
For when my eyes look upon you I feel blessed, to see and know such delicate brashness and attractive "dnt care"

My eyes and u have got something going on
They cant stop watching and you dont mind performing.
Eyes cannot comprehend the pure beauty that is you
Cannot, but try to, drink you up in one glance to save some for later
Eyes feign disinterest, relent and gaze upon your sun-kissed form
Eyes see the future self you are too preoccupied to be
The present self you neglect 
The past self you would like to forget.
All this I see and admire.
Thats all.

You walked lightly

You Walked Lightly You walked lightly into my life Captivating and lovely to my mind, At first, I never cared who you were Now I don’t know who I am without you, You kissed me I felt my world change, You held me I heard my heart awaken, You loved me And my soul was born anew You walked lightly into my life Now my heart knows who you are And with every breath And every step I take down lonely roads, Your hand is my staff Your voice is my guide Your strength my shelter You’re passion my awakening. You walked lightly into my life, And all my pain You took as your own, And all my fears You cast into the sea, All my doubt Lost in your eyes, You walked lightly into my life And no matter if you choose to stay or go, My life is forever changed, Just because you loved me For a moment in time. And because I choose To love you For the rest of mine. - Tracey Newson -

The riot has been televised : madness in protea south

The riots in Protea South in Soweto have left the residents of both Chiawelo and Protea North shaken, perplexed and genuinely confused. One who lives in a house cannot possibly fathom the problems a person who lives in a shack faces on a day to day basis. With that in mind I, as a resident of Chiawelo , cannot understand how the people of the shanty town in Protea south can choose to stay in an unsafe area that is not fit for habitation when a better suited area with houses made available for them  has been prepared. Never-mind the luxuries of having a shopping complex a five-minutes’ walk away,a police station a stones throw away, a main road that provides many modes of transport  and few services that are taken illegally, should it not be health that takes precedence over convenience in this case. This is just my opinion.

Nothing PAP about this flex

In the days before snap-backs and letter-man jackets were big in this hemisphere, when Kwaito was still King, Siyabonga Ngwekazi was rocking his own style. We should have known he would rise to the levels he has when we were tempted to watch that basketball show on a Saturday afternoon, knowing full well that soccer was our fix. We should have guessed that we would be hooked on this man’s style and charisma when he appeared on our screens again and again, first on Street Journal (2005), Real Goboza (2008), Metro FM Music Awards (2007) and when he graced the screen in 2009 with the now infamous Nonhtle Thema on Vuzu, we were sold. He branched out into the radio business, hosting a show with MTV’s Sizwe Dlomo on YFM – I remember a time when I didn't like hip- hop that was a time before “Seez and Scoop”. He now ventures into the world of fashion with his brand P.A.P, he calls the men’s clothing line “Pieces by PAP”, PAP ( Parental Advisory Productions) being a joint venture;...
