Faith Poem by nkosana Mpofu

We share the spaces
Faith detaches us, from reason
We trample each other
Refuse to accept
Multi-faith glowing faces.

Inadequate we all come
Uncertain we all come
Initiation in faith; a galvanisation
A gladdening to spirituality
Tunnel vision.

Resolute in our moorings
Allah, Judah, Buddha, Christ.
The Moon, Sun, Soil, Ancestors.
Individually encapsulated
Perform own scripts.

Our faiths unpretentious
Steadfast in our worship
Pleasant in our beliefs.
In a world stratified
Classless in death.
