This book Divorcing My Deceptive Husband is about my ex-husband, Katalay from Congo. When I met him he was a refugee. His status changed when we got married. This book is not about criticizing him or destroying his character. I have no intentions to destroy his character at all. I fear God who create lives and owns all souls. What I discuss in this book is how women citizens can be deceived by desperate refugees who prey on such women to gain citizenship. It is not only in the Republic of South Africa but in Europe and United States as well. Recently I met a Black South African man. I ...

Beyond Death is a collection of poems that I wrote when I heard of so many people dying from various diseases, car accidents and violence related murder. I sat down to pray and ask God to search me and show me my heart. I asked God also to show me where I and my child need to repent of our sins.

Whenever I meet with people I talk about the coming of our LORD Jesus Christ, some are Christians, some have given up on ...

Women Without Wombs: Lamentation of the Childless is a collection of poems that I wrote after undergoing hysterectomy myself. I met fellow Black ladies who had womb problems. Some had cancer, some had fibroids, some had conception and problems. There is such fear, so little knowledge about womb disease out there.

One Zimbabwean said in her area the woman is called "a mine". There is this ...

Youth Searching For A Role Model is collection of my poems about the youth. The challenges they meet, the youth without role models. When I grew up what I observed was that in the African culture if a mother was widowed or a single parent, her brother or her uncle would be a father figure for the children. In Venda we had elderly men who would rebuke children who bunked school. There words would be "you are running away from school you will suffer when you grow up. If you can't read and write you struggle in life". Then the old man would ask "what is your name my grand-child? Who is your ...

I worked for one old woman who demanded ...

I personally view Depression as a defeated spirit that can see, hear, eat and breathe. To addresses it is not a once off action but makes a repeated command it by faith against ...

Poems written during a time of hardship and pain. Inspirational, motivating during a time of discouragement and despair. As long as a person is alive there is hope for a miracle in Jesus Christ.

Who’s Womb Is It? is my book that I wrote after I had my hysterectomy (womb removal). It was not an easy decision for me to make. It was my first time going to a government hospital for a medical procedure. Praise be to our God everything went well. I made some friends at the hospital. I delayed for months to go for the medical procedure because of the stigma behind women without wombs. When I tell some women that I don’t have a womb they say “oh, I’m so sorry, oh, at least I still have mine”. Some women jump away from me as if I said I have a contagious deadly disease. It shows ...

I am grieved to see the division in the Body of Christ. How we compete with each other. My grandmother taught me a few good things. One of them was the importance of the body parts. They must work together for the perfection of the body. I meet people who act very superior because of the revelations they received from God in the past. I met one pastor who said to me, “Jesus is the head and I am His neck.”...
