    The following poem is about eating, touching, a very sensitive issue which is unusual at the end of it. People eat food and sometimes money but the new phenomenon we heard that there are people who eat human flesh. The poem written by Dumisa Mpupha

     

    KUYATYIWA!

    Kuyatyiwa kuba kuqheliwe

    Kutyiwa kuba asinto iqhelekileyo

    Kaloku kudliwa mhla ngatheko

    Ngoko ke ngasi yunguma ngasinye

    Sijonge ukutya sibhukuxe

     

    Kuyatyiwa kub’ithuba liyavuma

    Akukh’otyekel’ecaleni

    Nabani ung’angaty’ahluthe

    X’unqanda wozi zekel’olune nkume

     

    Izolo besi sitya isonka nenyama

    Izolo sisaziwa ngokutya nokudl’imali

    Kodwa namhlanje kudliwa isimanga nesimamangu

    Kutyiwa iinyama zabantu

    Buzani kwabaziyo

     

    Kuyatyiwa!
