[hometext] => I wrote this poem eight years ago when I was a student at the University of Zimbabwe. I think it says just a teeny weeny little bit about what was going on in my life at that time.
[bodytext] => Da beauty an’ da awe of it, Dem sugars we keep seein’ all the time, Dem figure eights dat breathe, Dat plague our lives wit’ fantasies, Dat kill our childhood at infancy; So where a’ dem honeys now dat I need ‘em, Where do dey all go.... When a dude is ready to tie dat knot. Dey is dere when um wanna party, Dey is dere when um wanna play, An’ dey is even dere when um wanna fight; But tell me where dey all is, When um wanna get married; When um wanna have a woman of my own, When um wanna love for real, Were do all dem honeys go? Yes da beauty an’ da lack of it, An’ da absence of it when da awe is gone, Da love an’ da lack of it, Da honies an’ deir bee stings, Oh dem sugars dat can be sour, An’ dem hearts dat break lookin’ for dem, An’ dem dudes dat die... Askin’ where da honeys go.
