AM JUST A BROTHER

by: Promike Kamwendo

The Song "Aleke anene" profitably says that,

Because I was born inside;

I must marry inside.

The Bible itself justifies that,

Because I must die inside;

I shouldn't associate with the outside.

Now am trying to be myself,

Trying to follow the word to the letter,

But your sweet voice states am a brother...

Girl; take a breath,

Statistically we share no scarlet liquid,

The masses justifically call you 'Mlongo'

But that's not the path we take.

I practiced this song for decades,

And if I might be right;

I became a sheep just to bleat for you.

Now you shut the door in my face

Am I just a brother?

Hey girl;

If I am to marry outside this conclave,

it's an abomination,

But the voice on Genesis 2 verse 18 to 24,

Can bind our faith

Make haste before I drop my faith,

For that's the worst leap;

So let our kins share the song,

And dance to the union.
