Posted by Echoes of a Salamander -Don Beukes. August 12, 2015. This is for my AFRIKAANS followers but anyone can comment on it if you want! Surprisingly, I found myself writing my first song as a rap in a typical ‘Cape Flats’ dialect of AFRIKAANS from Cape Town, as I grew up and was educated in BELHAR, which is in the Nothern Suburbs of Cape Town and only 10 minutes from the airport!

Before you write-off your imaginary sister. Remember how she didn’t take her blunt playschool scissors. To your Tiny Tears doll, didn’t lop off a curl,. How it didn’t make you cry for three nights in a row,. Your only consolation, not inviting a mantra to your lips:. You are not my sister, you are not my sister. Think of that night she wasn’t at the tap-end. Of the bath, not blowing bubbles through her fingers,. Not sloshing them over your face, how the water didn’t slop. Winner of the Cinnamon Prize 2013.
