Steam Blown Off

OK so now I get it..
I understand..
but who hurts? both you and I.
I'm not going to lie
For some of the things you've done
I'm actually quite stunned
I mean you took it too far, beyond your point.
So now you want to break up our sibling joint.
Yes, I said I understand. but that doesn't mean I accept
What kind of example are you trying to set?
What is this hatred that you can't forget?!
To allow it to go so deep and make you turn sour
To cause you to gossip and bitch, hour after hour..
What is it? What have we all done
For you to do this, give me a reason, just one!
Do you really know what you're causing,
Don't you see?
YOU'RE BREAKING UP THE FAMILY!
Argh!
Fuck it, if you won't hear me
Then I wont here you too
and then I'll simply learn to forget about you
I mean our blood ties aren't visible so i can go on
giving your attitude is that so wrong?
All i want is peace away from this wreckage
not dysfunction, i refuse to be a wreck at this age...

Half Cast..

Too great a poem...
Too great...

The Afrikaan Drum

The Afrikaan drum beat as my heart
The Afrikaan drum aimed like a dart
It oozed through the tough blood
And exclaimed at the very thud
That begun the end to what ruined the Afrikaan pride
It begun the end to the apartheid

The Afrikaan drum reminisces on the guns and the rapes
But the Afrikaan drum moves on from them at its own rhythm pace
The drum fertilizes the grass and blossoms the plants
It heals the pained by bringing them to dance
It teaches how to forgive so not to block the blessed
The Afrikaan drum is pacification at it's crest

The Afrikaan drum published thousands of smiles
It restored the purity of what was defiled
The Afrikaan drum is salvation in art
The Afrikaan drum beats as my heart.
