sunnyside blues
being mugged
is a curious situation to experience
it happened to me twice
same spot
my hood (sunnyside – tshwane – africa – planet earth)
both times
on my way back from the petrol station
the funny thing
when you gaze at that scintillating blaze
is that there’s place for one thought only in your stoned brain:
are these four kids surrounding me
really ready to stab my broke ass
for 35 rand, an ice cream and a pack of rizla?
the puzzling thing
is that you’ll never know the answer
