blasphemy! That’s the word they decry
Oh! Amucks take me not for my words
For tis not the body but the soul
Tis not this words but soul that’s in it
Look beyond the body, peer into its soul
Before to the gallows your cries of blasphemy echo
Judge me not by my wordings
For the fool no answer will find
Even if twas freckled on his face
Look yonder what you see
Before thee take the cry ‘blasphemy’
Do not misquote foolishly my words
For tis not in the body but the soul
words don't always express that which is contained in the soul, it takes a truly remarkable human being to pierce into the soul of another and find the spirit within(you are I know) -by nkululeko mdudu; so basically we should look beyond words, for they are of the now, we should look towards the meaning within the man. great write!
