THE NEW RAY

(For Melvis)

By Tikum Mbah Azonga

Making a choice in life
Squarely and flatly
That`s what life is all about.
It isn`t for the faint-hearted
Or those with feet of clay.

No, life is meant for the type from Fyffe
Those who can serve gladly
But also draw blood when it comes to the bout.
Those are the rules of the game as intended.
Unless you are that, you can`t be the new ray.
