This is a poem my friend wrote. WE live in South Africa and the subject matter is our country. His SOtho and his name is Neo Matsau.
The poem is as yet untitled but I thought I would share it with you guys (and girls;)

Freeway traffic taxi
leaving my behind, must ketchup
on my hotdog,
as I am eating jaw is beating - speakers create noise
of infant babies
makes me want to emigrate to Hungary
man in Hillbrow lies
politicians tell people
want to move to America
where hunger does not stirke
three times and you're out.

The poem should be read aloud all at once and the structuring is simply there to indicate the main 'switches'

Enjoy

I loved this poem, I am always so curious about South Africa as some of my closest friends are from there. Its a country that seems to breed remarkable and intense people.

Yeah South Africa does seem quite a unique country. I'd quite like to go there, even if it does have one of the most dangerous cities in the world there.
