Mtanganyika...
Sijui ni kitu gani kimekughadhibisha hadi unatukana.
Wala sijui zipi pumba katika haya ninayoandika kwani tumekuwa na mjadala
mzuri tu na wengi wamechangia mengi yenye manufaa.
Kuwa, ''tupo tupo,'' si sawa wala si kweli kusema hivyo.
Sisi tunaishi kama wanavyoishi jamii nyingine katika nchi hii.
Kuhusu kubadilisha kofia tunabadilisha kweli maana ni kivazi chetu kama watu
wa pwani na kama Waislam wala havijabadilika rangi.
Kuna wakati tunavaa kofia na kuna wakati hatuvai kofia.
Nakuwekea kofia hapo chini na hebu onyesha hiyo iliyobadilika rangi:
Ikiwa mimi unaniita ni msomi wa wajinga wewe kwa haya matusi yako na kejeli
unazotoa tukuweke katika kundi gani?
Angalia hapo chini na nionyeshe wajinga katika ya hao waliofungua milango
