Allan with a handful of nails

branches from a thorn tree

a platform was built

for the people’s thoughts-

platform to bear

weight and lightness

Siphiwe vultures overslept

woke up to find the freedom charter

coiled like a mamba

ready to strike

kliptown where people sang

the same tune

danced to the same rhythms
