Some Kind of African Life

Neville

Some Kind of African Life

 

After twenty nine pints of O rhesus positive

   and dying three times ..

Not to mention eight hours straight he spent

   in their hands under the knife ..

They worked on him solid and not one gave

up on him, until they

    eventually handed him back some kind of life ..

And although the guy

who stabbed him twice and took his phone,

his passport and watch

got clean away, he nevertheless, forgave him

and vowed, that one day

   God willing, he might again return to his Africa,

providing his wife and two kids

   would ever dare let him out of their sight again ..
