TWO FOR THE PRICE OF ONE

By Tikum Mbah Azonga

(For Mispa and Vera)

You`re both dark and shortish and smallish
Look-alike twins perhaps
Who knows?
Is not this life full of surprises?

What I want to know is whether you`re also bullish
And whether once in a while you indulge in raps
If not, tell us why this cold wind blows
Or why our world is always in crisis.
