I is back (I sigh) - 7 march '09

I is back, I sigh
the culture of I-speak
for I-self, me first
accruing personal I-kudos

I is back, I sigh
in the form of
the demi-god, leader-goat
who speaks for I-self

I is back, I sigh
the individual inside
of the collective
(is I African, Western)

I is back, I sigh
speaking personally
for everyone else
in their name

I is back, I sigh
the eyesore and the id
of the personality
and the cult thereof
is on the campaign trail

I sigh

I sigh at my morning radio, Saturday morning, March 9 2009, from which the I-voice of our anti-apartheid cleric I-speaks in the name of something apparently new.
