a farm with one foot in the desert, the other in an orchard

   on the famous        fortress, and home

        not forgotten     flower-brightened

               blood brothers        that once spewed diamonds

                          the stage for bitter       diamonds and romance

                                embody  orange

                                               stimulated by          home

                                                                 by hooks in flesh

at the entrance to

    good hope, natal,    a garden spot

             a collapsing    strange language

                when fashions changed,       a faithful friend

                                                  of        the youthful

                                 hang their gleaming               precious

                                                  whites and blacks

                                                              trekking through

                                                         on your way to California!
