murume wangu itsamba
isina muturikiri
yakanyorwa nemukorekore
ichinyorerwa mundevere
ibhurugwa rine zipi
yakafa, rashaya anosonesa
rinofamba richinongedza
wese asingatye kutarisa
isiragi yemubhawa
inotambwa nani nani –
akachena kana ane shena
ane mahobi kana man’a
mumaoko
kanzira kekuchimbuzi
kanojairirwa newese,
nhunzi dziripo
pakuperekedza
itarakita yekanzuru
inorimira ani nani wese wemuruwa
ichitadza kupindura vhu
rewayo munda
ruware rwunoitwa
mutserendende nepwere, magaro ari pamhene,
rakacheka nyika
ishati yaTizirayi ine
makwambamakwamba
namanama nenyika dzese
dzeAfurika zviri zvigamba
iputumende yebenzi
inotakuriswa mbatya
iro richipembera riri
musvo
kachongwewo zvako,
kateteriyende
kanosekwa huchongwe
hwako nesheshe dzerayini…
ndamboti ndimusiye, asi
ndinotya kusiya tsono isina shinda
‘rega, rega, pamwe
mangwana ichasonawo’,
ndinongonzwa mwoyo
uchidarowo
ishangu yeruboshwe
inotodawo yerudyi
amai kani, ndigere
hangu pane dzamushore nekutsungirira
musandishore, asi makadya
manonoko munowana ndamusungirira
ndisati ndapedza, ndikandewo
kamubvunzo mudariro…
ndinganzi ndapisira
here ndikatsvaga rimwe gumbo rekufamba naro?
