Weeds Are Not Uprooted
To encourage a section to serve
Will make the other take it granted.
To encourage a section to forgive
Will make the other go scot-free.
To educate a section tolerance
Will make the other inconsiderate.
By weeding, the weed is not uprooted.
The left weeds will get more place to grow in.

The decision for me was whether to have ""The Father"" be a book that told a story - from the point of view of this speaker, the daughter - without, as in the earlier books, then having a section on something else and a section on something else.

Columns
(Mobile Columns of the Boer War)
Out o' the wilderness, dusty an' dry
(Time, an' 'igh time to be trekkin' again!)
Oo is it 'eads to the Detail Supply?
A sectioin, a pompom, an' six 'undred men.
'Ere comes the clerk with 'is lantern an' keys
(Time, an 'igh time to be trekkin 'again!)
" Surplus of everything--draw what you please
"For the section, the pompom, an' six 'unrdred men."
"What are our orders an' where do we lay? .
(Time, an 'igh time to be trekkin' again!)
"You came after dark--you will leave before day,
"You section, you pompom, you six' undred men!"
Down the tin street, 'alf awake an 'unfed,
'Ark to 'em blessin' the Gen'ral in bed!
Now by the church an' the outspan they wind--
Over the ridge an' it's all lef' be'ind
For the section, etc.
Soon they will camp as the dawn's growin' grey,
Roll up for coffee an' sleep while they may--
The section , etc.
Read their 'ome letters, their papers an' such,
For they'll move after dark to astonish the Dutch
With a section, etc.
'Untin' for shade as the long hours pass--
Blankets on rifles or burrows in grass,
Lies the section, etc.
Dossin' or beatin' a shirt in the sun,
Watching chameleons or cleanin' a gun,
Waits the section, etc.
With nothin' but stillness as far as you please,
An' the silly mirage stringin' islands an' seas
Round the section, etc.
So they strips off their hide an' they grills in their bones,
Till the shadows crawl out from beneath the pore stones
Toward the section, etc.
An' the Mauser-bird stops an' the jacals begin
A the 'orse-guard comes up and the Gunners 'ook in
As a 'int the pompom an' six 'undred men . . . .
Off through the dark with the stars to rely on---
(Alpha Centauri an' somethin' Orion)
Moves the section, etc.
Same bloomin' 'ole which the ant-bear 'as broke,
Same bloomin' stumble an' same bloomin' joke
Down the section, etc.
Same "which is right?" where the cart-tracks divide,
Same "give it up" from the same clever guide
To the section, etc.
Same tumble-down on the same 'idden farm,
Same white-eyed Kaffir 'oo gives the alarm--
Of the section, etc.
Same shootin' wild at the end o' the night,
Same flyin'-tackle an' same messy fight,
By the section, etc.
Same ugly 'iccup an' same 'orrid squeal,
When it's too dark to see an' it's too late to feel
In the section, etc.
(Same batch of prisoners, 'airy an' still,
Watchin' their comrades bolt over the 'ill
From the section, etc.)
Same chilly glare in the eye of the sun
As 'e gets up displeasured to see what was done
By the section, etc.
Same splash o' pink on the stoep or the kraal,
An' the same quiet face which 'as finished with all
In the section, the pompom, an' six 'undred men.
Out o' the wilderness, dusty an' dry
(Time, an' 'igh time to be trekkin' again!)
' Oo is it 'eads to the Detail Supply ?
A section, a pompom, an 'six' 'undred men.

Rhythm Section Want Ad
In a world we call our home theres lots of room to roam
Plenty of time to turn mistakes into rhyme
Theres a place for those who love their poetry
Its just across from the sign that says, pros only
So if you like a band with a chick singer,
Say your cup of tea is a wall of trombones
If you dig menudo, or mdc we salute you the way we know
For every one with dollar signs in his eyes
There must be hundreds who look at you as if youre some kind of
Rhythm section want ad
No others need apply to the rhythm section want ad
Ill tell you why
Hats off to the new age hairstyle made of bones
Hats off to the use of hats as megaphones
Speak softly, drive a sherman tank
Laugh hard, its a long way to the bank
Do you sing like olive oyl on purpose
You guys must be into the eurythmics
For every one with dollar signs in his eyes
There must be hundreds who look at you as if youre some kind of
Rhythm section want ad
No others need apply to the rhythm section want ad
And heres the reason why
Hats off to the new age hairstyle made of bones
Hats off to the use of hats as megaphones
Speak softly, drive a sherman tank
Laugh hard, its a long way to the bank
Do you sing like olive oyl on purpose
You guys must be into the eurythmics
For every one with dollar signs in his eyes
There must be hundreds who look at you as if youre some kind of

No others need apply to the rhythm section want ad
And heres the reason why

No others need apply to the rhythm section want ad
And heres the reason why

Must you invoke?
It is not that one section cheats
And the other is cheated.
It is that each in a section cheats
And in turn is cheated.
They thus square up themselves.
Must they invoke gods to interfere?

Haa..Haa-Hi..Hi
Everybody loves me and want my company
available in the market free of cost.
Simplest way to communicate difficult talk,
while some people enjoy each other.
Few used me as teasing instrument on other.
Biggest friend for good health.
Certain section of people understand me
and convert me in to small industry.
A day celebrated in my name.
Little bit of biology and neurology is my formula.
Anyone can use me on different section of society.
Believe it or not happiness is guaranteed.
My capability is to through away tension & problem
to some extent if not totally.
i am your...ha...haa...hi...hii...laughter.

Can we show it prove?
Can we make it through? (Can we?)
[VERSE 2]
Now it's (true)
Sometimes it's hard just to love me (true)
And I say some things that ain't really (true)
But that don't mean that I say ain't (true)
When I say that I do love you (true)
I've said this before but this time it's (true)
'Cause I cannot lose the one thing that's (true)
'Cause I look at you and I see a (true)

Gurdjieff
“You are both a wolf
and a lamb.
If you do not stay awake
the wolf will devour
the lamb.”
Oh you, the Living and the Dead!
Both those who earn
and you who claim by right
your daily bread.
Encourage the few
they will become the many.
Encourage the poor
they will reach out for more.
Encourage the young
they will fail to grow up.
Encourage the old
they will grow older.
Why do so many
in public life
wear nametags
nowadays?
“In case they forget
who you are.”

A Lucky Doctor
A young, handsome doctor as I was,
I had had two types of clients:
Aunties with nothing wrong with them,
Who paid handsomely for my bedroom manners;
The slum dwellers, with all the wrong with them,
Who paid poorly or nothing at all.
A section fed me; a section I fed.
I led a life more than a doctor could.

Waiting For Love
She looks to the sun
Help her to carry on
Breakin down all the years
Wondering how she got here
She drifts trought the sky
Counting the reasons why
How my life turned so fast
Remembering all of the past
B-Section
All the changes, and all the mistakes
Foolishly laughing at things that
Words that she says
Verse 2
She looks to the stars
Breaking, time to follow the heart
Her world is falling apart
B-Section
And the turning of every new page
A book on a shelf that is there to remain
Breaking the walls as she's tearing them down
As she is starting to drown
Chorus
She's waiting for love
She's waiting, waiting for love
Waiting, waiting for love
She's waiting, waiting so long
Verse 3
She prays to the Gods
Telling how she needs someone
Help me find where I am today
Life is looking very grey
B-Section
All the changes, all the mistakes
Foolishly laughing at things that
Everything that she says
Chorus
Bridge
I'm waiting for a new day to rise
Conversations to make sense to me and my mind
I need someone to lift me right off my feet
And I want it, and I need it, and I'll leave it all behind
And all the changes I've made
And I remember the words, that you'll never say
Chorus
She looks to the sun

Funnyossities
Where silliness borders on the realm of possibility –
that’s the blissful land where children play;
inventing for themselves, or helped
by those never-quite-grown-ups
who spend their working week
chortle-gurgle-wham-ouch-eeuucchh! -‘****? ’-
EEEKK! -AAaarrgghh! ! ! ,
illustrating Kidz Komix and such
in that blissful land
and there were books called ‘Funnyossities’
(they’d be nothing now)
the pages chopped laterally in three:
heads in the top section, every possible caricature,
bodies of every size, shape, dress, the middle section;
then legs of all sorts (lots of hairy ones, of course)
occupied the lower section;
and you turned them over, this way, that way,
to make the most ludicrous combinations…
sometimes just absurd, sometimes surreally possible…
I’m there on the page you’re turning now:
a wizened face, eyes popping;
from my mortar-board, it seems, a schoolmaster enraged
to apoplexy and beyond;
the body of a languid, greenery-yellery poet, wilting like
a stick of celery long past its celery-buy date…
the legs like ancient hairy sticks beneath the woeful shorts…
feel free to chortle, or to turn the page;
it could be worse.

The One
[Verse1]
I've been looking for a man
To stay here till the end
He will not just be my lover
He'll be my best friend
He will always be a guiding force in my life
Then he'll hold me tight
[B-section]
He will never leave me standing
In the pouring rain
He will never disrespect me
Call me out my name
He will never have me waiting
Till the morning comes
I will always be his baby
When it's said and done
[Hook]
'Cause he'll be the one
'Cause he'll be the one
'Cause he'll be the one
'Cause he'll be the one
[Verse 2]
He will always be the one
To wipe away my tears
He will always be the one
To kiss away my fears
He will always be there
Making everything alright
Be the one to always love me
No more lonely nights
[B-section (Repeat)]

Media
Early stage of my childhood people treat me like 'masiha'
who is going to take care of different section of society.
little later i play important role in freedom struggle.
After independence i am learning, modern technique
gradually when i became full of youthful action.
My intelligent mind say taking care of people,
welfare and highlighting their problem is not my job.
Some sort of professionalism must be adopted by me.
Fastly acting on direction of my mind i adopted modern method
my object is solely and only motive is profit.
Huge amount paid to me for lobby particular section
I can make and destroy any one in few hour.
Those oppose me are always in trouble.
You can understand me i am visible in different form.
I love to make huge money,
please do not talk of highlight problem of people
I your own mature print media -- at your service for profit only.

I didn't want to have to say this to you
It's not that I don't love you
I just can't be explaining to everyone why you hurt me
That's why I want to keep us between you and me
You'd understand if you were treated like me
It's not that people run me
But they can see when I am hurtin'
They know it's not me
So don't make me the blame
You need to change

What You Waitin' For

I know I met you last night
As soon as you walked by me
You didn't really have to speak
Didn't take a long time
For me to peep how you
Really wanna get with me

So whatcha say
Better step to the plate
Don't be afraid
Before you wait too late
Stop playing games
Ain't got no time to waste
Don't hesitate
Or somebody's gonna take your place

Come on, Come on
Tell me what it is you're waiting for
Whatcha waiting for (4x's)
Verse 2:
I don't pay no never mind
To the people that are vibin'
You're the only one I see
I know you see me checkin' for you
Do what you gotta do
Why don't you make a scene

Better step to the plate

[VERSE 1]
No more sittin' at home at night
Waiting for you to come home
No more will I cry for you
I found somebody new
No more late night phone calls
Don't even bother at all
When I was there for you
You took me for granted
[B-SECTION]
Now he loves me
The way that I wanted you to love me
He's always thinking of me
He's nothing like you at all
I don't know why
I stayed with you for so long
I should have been gone
He's nothing like you at all
[CHORUS]
That's why I say WOW
Never felt a love so good
I look up and my world is brighter now
There's no more rainy clouds
Since love's here and
Now everyday I wear a smile
He came into my life and the clouds are gone
I only see the sun
[VERSE 2]
He's here and all my hurt is gone
Every night he is loving me
I feel like I'm inside a movie
But his love is so real to me
He's here and I finally found someone
That I can call my own
Now that I'm not with you
You want me to come back

No more trouble since you came into my life
I'm so full of you
You're the reason why I am so happy lately
