Beautiful Me. Poem by Thabani Khumalo

Beautiful Me.



Teach us how to play gently with other children in the dust
for this we ought to fully learn or it will dawn while we bewitch each other.
I am the universal dream; I am the African continent;
a marvel to the least of even the intricate detail.
To fall for me is totally risky but
clever women have learned to adore only the God from overseas.

My body changes structure
to fracture every woman's heart.
i hearken to the devil's words
and he says that I'm an innocent Angel.
I'm a beautiful creature,
even simple mirror magnifies my ravishing feature.

I compare with the stars of the galaxy,
I'm exactly like a handsome baby.
I put on a smile of the millennium
and break every dear lover's affair.
I am a Christian of the bible;
the guy who (by his hand)decimated the Earth.
I am a secret lover with a halo above my head,
I'm intrinsically every girl's beautiful dream.
I am a holy mother's baby -
I am an unapologetic kingdom child.
