i went to the hood yesterday - came back here very tired (ok maybe i wasn’t tired but i was pretending to be tired, coz i was talking to her (see what emotions does to you,damn!), i think im coming up with flu) ok, back to the hood. i was remesing the whole day - the hood has changed so much - to a point that some things have left no evidence that they’ve been there. Alot of people are missing - R.I.P to Thabiso, Shorty “short gun” and Thabo “2pac” and alot people have moved out - and still alot of people are still there.
i remember i used to live 2 houses from the hottest place ya magwiya ko 12th ave - sometimes i would step out of the door - and i’d be greeted with long line of customers. i remember when the engine garage had green grass - and we used to play there the whole day - bath time wasn’t the most exciting part of the day. Walking to Sandton ka di school holidays was no biggie - as long as you had scaftin then you’ll be fine - we would leave the hood ka 8:30 and come back ka17:00 - as if we were working.
i remember my dreams then - those dreams are nothing compared to my dreams today. i remember when i was the only kid at home - life was beautiful. he he he! i love my siblings to death tho.
