Die haan het lank al ge kraai.
En nee gin wind in sig wat waai.
Nie eens n pikkewyn wat laai.
Yes this is pier one.
Here you have so much fun.
Like hell it makes you numb.
Hier sit mens ure en wag.
Maar nee nie vir Eskom se kag.
Hier wag ons vir die Afrika Mag.
It needs to arise.
One could even say come alive.
But that would be a big surprise.
Hier gebeur niks met of sonder rede.
Raak rustig of jy breek die vrede.
Want in Africa beheer die lede.

| I work at Pier 1. It's mindbogglingly terrible there. |

Very interesting. Never been to Durban/, nor Africa, in fact I am geographically challenged, as are most Americans (which is truly sad)/ just read it's the largest container port in the Southern Hemisphere. Lot of days go by (is this what you mean by cock crows?) - I tried to decipher the African. It's a lovely poem and sounds whimsical. I'm sure I don't get its meaning. It sounds like a lot's going on there, but maybe you are suggesting this is not so - at least indirectly. Kind of sitting on the Dock of the Bay, is this sort of where you're going?
