It must be true that a thousand years
are like one day in the sight of God, Because these two years with you seem like just yesterday
yet I feel I have known you all my life.
Our dry bones will make love in the dirt long after our time on earth is over.
Cos this love is forever and a day — % &

A light is come!
7 pounds, 3 ounces
Hope is born!
God in man dwelling
A son is given!

"Let them shoot! let them shoot!"
"Everybody sit down! sit down!"
And so we did,
Waving flags in our hands,
Blazing guns in theirs.
The anthem was on our lips.
Their fingers on the trigger
"Off light" was the order
They opened fire before we got to
"...one nation bound in..."
Freedom was all we wanted.

I do not refute the words of the ancients
But the man who said

What I've learnt from the ocean
How to surf and dance in the motion
Let the sun have its moment
The moon will come
We will arise when men fall (Asleep)

I have been wall-painting
Sketching memoirs of our time together.
And each ink drop;
each brush stroke
leaves me gasping
for the faintest wisp of your fragrance.
Anything; almost everything
Is the least I would do
To relive these paintings on my wall.

I know a man
A son whom the sun takes shining lessons from.
A king and a priest he stands
Yet he walks amongst the simplest of men.
There was a cry for true worshippers
And then you were birthed.
Now the angels are wondering,
"Who is Mezzy that thou oh Lord, shouldst inhabit his praise?"
You offered yourself as an offering;
Now kings are coming to watch you burn.

He rose
To make us
Heroes
