For the first day of the month-of-love, I’m sharing this old Afrikaans poem of mine, with a beautiful romantic twist in the end.
There was a time when I spent an inordinate amount of time on the road, and a lot of my writing reflects that.
I kissed a girl and I liked it
We all know the song
Or at least, we thought we did…
Good morning!
As a somewhat obsessive rule-observer, roads present a chaos that can sometimes be hard to accept.
Very hard.
So I wrote about it.
As I sat down to write, I had three Afrikaans words come to mind. “Wrok. Wrak. Wraak.” From them a life and a world was born. A tragic one, it turns out.
