yo yo gazelle

Sorry papa maar ek moet die plaas verlaat want ek mis die disko ligte te veel. Clap-clap to LV and R for planning to storm the stage. Dance dance disco boys. Pity about the tractor-like techie. Next time. Rainbow umbrellas to the sky.

RAKA

red-brown-gold stubble, green crop-eye in the rugged face of farmland looking down at the open road. we drove on, back to the start. standing on the highway in pvc, laughing, trying to fix the car with a piece of elastic and a metal hook. rough road black-eye application, then watching the bands with a bottle of wine. drinking a bucket of brandy and smoking stolen cigarettes. ai my lam. dancing like lianie. remember/forget. wake up, hot hot heat. spike-armed aloes reach for the sun as we all flock to the shade. searching for drinkable water, while staying out of the water. dance dance dance. photographs. a crowd. sleeping in the car. freezing/boiling/fridge/oven. sunday. sondag. bassondag. blues on fire. hoochy coochy man. voodoo children. trouble in paradise. sun smiles on us though. then back to the city. a dust road dream. til next year. or next week as it so happens. I love you Jack, love Neal.
