Lucid Lies
Ingane ishelwa ngamanga
To win the love of a beautiful queen,
You have to tell her
lucid lies.
Build her a castle that she
cannot refuse to live in with your words,
choose them carefully and be deliberate in how you say them.
Sometimes it is not what you have that matters to your queen,
but how you do and say certain things,
I use the word “certain things” carefully here
because I am not here to prescribe, but to suggest.
Lucid lies are best understood
when energies are aligned.
If you are her yin and her
your yang, then these
lucid lies will all make sense.
It might not make sense now, but
Remember that:
ingane ishelwa ngamanga
to win the love of a beautiful queen,
you have to tell her
lucid lies.
