metro african ligkaribe

I’m a Bantu girl (likgaribe) of Setswana/ Sotho /Shona descent.. Having grown up in Bulawayo I also have a strong Ndebele heritage. Currently I live in Botswana but a part of me will always be Ndebele. I am of the Mmirwa tribe –, my totem is the Buffalo & just like the Buffalo I am very brave, protective, fierce and dangerous when provoked. I love learning about my African heritage, and that of other people, I believe if you stop learning as a person you might as well roll over and die.

A ligkaribe Poem - I won't fight you

Why do you fight me?

I won’t fight you

Why do you sit there?

And pour all your hate on me

I’m just like you

Lost lonely, and afraid too

Struggling like you

Needing like you

Yet you choose to fight me

to hate me

With your dagger eyes and dagger tongue

Why do you fight me?

I won’t fight you
