This pledge that l,Ntando, make today serves
as my guideline that I shall follow
happily, ungrudgingly and tirelessly
for the sake of our love life.
Indeed l am well aware of the fact that
the beauty of this pledge does not only lie
in word alone but in action as well.

Sing the Song of Love and Loyalty 

Raven lurking in the stillness and quiet 
dark moon lit ashen mist, fog of night.
Burst of sparkling electrifying woven blanket; 
Lovers spin clinging upon the wind laced secret intimate flight, 
Musical chant vibrates shape hidden in sound and...

Loyalty

Liege to a ruler or
legitimate caring.
Love and devotion that
loses the self to make
long ties to someone else.
Lasts against the storms that
life often can bring on.

You love him, you want him
He doesn’t want you
You’ve had no one for so long
just the person that you knew
He’s stuck in your head
Glued to your mind
Friends say forget him
There’s new guys to find

The loyalty shown,
You never did cheat,
His love was enough
For you to retreat
You...

My heart is weary and my soul is heavy,
I have removed the dagger but I am bleeding still;
and I know I will have a deep scar forevermore,
oh, but could I remove your name from my mind;
and how I wish that I had never met you,...

I've got your back will always be
A term of my loyalty
Call me any day or night
If something just isn't right
A cash loan I'll give to you
Anytime to help you through
Sickness won't keep me away
By your side I'll sit and stay
If tears are falling from your...

it still was,nt enough to heel this pain
i gave her my life over and over again 
but she still left me for my best friend

Did you think my friendship fickle,
thus deserving of the sickle
did you think that it would wither up and die?

Did you think my friendship faded
thus transforming true to jaded
did you think you could revive if you try?

Did you think my friendship lacking,
thus you sent me swiftly...

In the shrine of my soul,
In the cathedral of contemplation.
In the temple of tenacity,
In the mosque of mercy…

Beside the rushing riven river,
Beside the thundering towers of waterfalls,
Beside the immeasurable leagues of a lagoon…

Above the depths of despair,
Above the abyss of abject misery…

On the shores of...

Thank God I have a Brother!
He fixes up the truck,
I sometimes give him money,
Whenever he gets stuck.

(Not just for up and fixin’
The truck – not what I mean
‘f I tried, he wouldn’t take it)
It’s just that times ‘re lean.

His poor bald head works harder,
Than any...

Friends..
Take us just as we are;
The rough and the smooth.
Accepted and loved.
With nothing to prove.

Friends..
Need us too;
Or that's what we hope.
Ask yourself this:
Are you sick, phat or dope?

Friends..
Gather together in twos, threes or fours.
Uplifting each other.
House and hearts;
Open doors.

Friends..
Share the mountainous journey,
the struggles, the views.
Friends...

There's a false chord in the lullaby.
There's a dagger in the hand.
There's a stinger in the butterfly.
There's a scorpion in the sand.

There's harshness in the laugh.
A fist in velvet glove
A dead bird in your path
Contempt behind the love

Crushed eyeglass near your car
Banana peel on the...

On Friendship

To silently support and hold your belief
To hold you up when you are consumed by grief 
To embrace you for all of your idiosyncratic forms
To exist with you beyond the societal norms

To be born of love and kindness and grace 
To know every line...

Such a nose had Ol’ Blue.
Best in south Missouri... everybody knew.
Could smell a pheasant across the plain.
Could point a covey in a hurricane.
That’s the way the legend goes.
Ol’ Blue had a “magic nose.”
 
As Blue got older, his master’s mind would drift away
To a place where...
