Thunder – Calyn Moneron

I get home to my bed

Blankets hug me tight then thud!

My sleep is disturbed

My Own Sin – Calyn Moneron

In winter I am made to sit down

But I must stand up!

 
There is a burning anger

The Place of Fire – Calyn Moneron

It exists as a way…

To recognize the value in life.

We gathered a creativity and innovation

This Will Only Get Harder – Calyn Moneron

You go sleep in your bed…

You can’t take it anymore.

A quiet night rattled by all the yelling and shouting

Green for Green – Daniël Engelbrecht

You dig in the sun

Clearing weeds and turning sod

A meager pay waits

When the Iron Curtain Falls – Karin Hendriques

The iron curtain held people back

A museum of bad hair and special privileges

Light brought freedom

Light brought life

 

The state of a nation

A country made to breath

Light brought perspective

Light bought life

 

Welcome Anook, Bill Riley, King Kong

Baby sister of Ann and friends of Manguang

Light brought diversity

Light brought life

 

* * *

 

Authenticating, unfolding, global tribes together

A flash, a parade, stepping away from darkness

Light brings life

Light is life

 

Skylines – Gabi Adriaanse

Inspire creativity

Shades and shapes

The Burn – Maxwell Jantjies

Feeling hot, 5:30 in the morning

The fire off at 5am

Candlelight Balance – Zahaa Safodien

CANDLELIGHT BALANCE

Reminiscent of days when the lights would go out

Scrummage around, panic set in

Push Open – Maxwell Jantjies

Push open

Push open, push open

Please whisper in the passage
