Wow… what a beautiful read, and what a song to pick!

Not surprising though, PK was a genius. This song still upsets those in political leadership, especially the Presidents, who are rhetoric. And it’s a joy to those fighting to step into leadership.

Did you know this song made PK lose his job? Courtesy of President Chiluba.

What a song… “You can increase the price for anything else but not food.

“If your country is poor and can’t afford food, it’s such an embarrassment.

I love your essay. The depth, insight, parallels, and sentiment make me want to search out the lyrics, melody and rhythm to find and possibly (re-)experience the sense of your poetry.
