White Dwarf City

THE city of life, a cloned secret, the last wicket, a naked spirit, a concrete lyric, the White Dwarf City

Cape Town, she carries the bells from hell, a den where a lot of demons dwell, cogent jungle with a wild pale beauty, here money goes where cunning grows

Tik town, Cape Town my town, a home for the San, the soul, the sin and the sun, the birth place of fun, a daft’s hand gun, a house surrounded by a lake, a fake of faith a date, a stake or a hake life in the Cape is like a fragile cake, if it’s meant for the Cape, it’s meant for your sake

Cape of love, Cape of joy, Cape of glee, cronies in crime, Cape of crooks, home for suicide family murderers, child stranglers and peddlers, Cape of tears, Cape of fears, Cape of storms, Cape of hope, take note and use your vote

City of wine, Cape Town the city of girls, the city of jazz, a reverse image of a star, the cult sauce of Aten, earth’s xerox of Aden,

Mother City, the golden treat, dessert split, the Babylon splif fortune preserved at its mountain’s heals, a scintillating grin coated sculpture, phenomenon gleaming with spasm, Cape Town the White Dwarf City,

Racism and crime is a pity, but this city’s duty is pretty, our hearts captivated by its aura, city of sorrow, Cape Town the city of horror, an illusion, a zephyr, A lulling timbre, Cape Town, The White Dwarf City. Xolani N Tom Nyanga
