MIND OF MINE

What is the time
old mind of mine
Can you swim the sacred slime?

Can you climb
this hill of rhyme
can you ascertain, or try,
to hear the churchbell's chime

Mind of gray matter
Mind of mad hatter
who is the latter
your head's getting fatter

What is the time
old mind of mine
We'll get wasted with some wine

Ovamboland, 1989.
