Analysis of Of peace not mind

M.Mantini 1999 (Johannesburg)



Call upon the humming of birds
Bring the whitest of clouds
My
Grey matter mutters  for more
Only on the journey of the pink of matters do I seek the peace.

call upon the rainbow before the rain
Dark matter accompanies this season
I'm in debt in for many morning
Fo n friend must disappear.
