Nadat sy Ronelda S. Kamfer<\/span> se Kompoun gaan kyk het, besin Lynthia Julius<\/span> oor die sondes van die ouers en die stilbly wat die kinders erf.<\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Moenie ons hard maak nie. Ons is sag. <\/em><\/p>

Hoor ek een van die karakters s\u00ea terwyl ek Kompoun<\/em> kyk. Die kjeeners se hoofde is saf, moenie hulle hoofde in laat val nie. Moenie hulle behandel dat hulle opstandig word nie. Moenie hulle hartseer vuiste maak nie. Hulle is sag, moen jy hulle nie hard maak nie. Moenie groen druiwe eet nie. Die kl\u00f4-goed se tande sal stomp raak. <\/p>

In \u201cNew Day\u201d van Jay-Z en Kanye West s\u00ea Jay vir sy kjeent: \u201cSorry, junior, I already ruined ya.\u201d En my ma s\u00ea sy het al gesien by die klinieke wat sy in gewerk het dat ma\u2019s nie hulle ARV\u2019s drink nie dat hulle kjeeners kan in h<\/strong>uisies i<\/strong>n die V<\/strong>rystaat (HIV) trek. Nog voor hulle gebore is. Dat hulle meer as net child support by Sassa pay. Laat die m\u00e2ma\u2019se disabillity kan pay vir hulle kjeeners. Dat hulle verder hulle vuil bloed aan hulle kjeeners oordra. <\/p>

Moenie ons hard maak nie. Ons is sag. <\/em><\/p>

En die hek in die teater hou aan hekker en my hart word al hoe papter en hulle praat van begrafnisse. Bruin mense se begrafnisse. Van kis dra en eerste skof en tweede skof. Op die wolke van die hemel sal ons Jesus weer ontmoet<\/em>. Die dood is nie die probleem nie. Die kak kom in wanneer jy lewe terwyl jy al klaar gesterwe het. <\/p>

Die oom vat aan my.<\/em><\/p>

Die ma kyk see toe. Ek het jou ges\u00ea jy moet my nie in die skande steek nie<\/em>. Maar skande is safter as \u2019n breek bestaan en skande tap die vuil bloed uit. En trauma is in die bloed. Dit braai binne ons soos uie in \u2019n Heart-pot. Dit maak kole van watte en hoe maak ons wanneer Sta-Soft ons nie meer saf kan maak nie. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Die oom vat aan my. <\/em><\/p>

Warsan Shire kom s\u00ea: \u201cI can make us loved, just say the word. Give them stumps for hands if even once they touched us without consent.\u201d Maar die oom wat in die donker die kjeeners vang se hande word al handeder. Hulle val nie af nie. Hulle vingers word al vingerder. Al natter en die m\u00e2ma\u2019se sluk hulle tonge asof dit trifle op \u2019n Krismis is. Hou jou bek. Sluk jou pyn. Jy dra nie jou pyn soos \u2019n nuwe Krismisrok nie. Jou rok is in elk geval onner bloed. Jy het maan toe gegaan en ons vier dit nie. Jy is nou \u2019n vrou \u2013 pas jou koek op. En onthou: vroeg ryp, vroeg vrot. Die mense van die kerk sal ons skinner en maak vir jou brood en tee vanaand. Ek het \u2019n nuwe kerkrok vir die konferensie by Truworths gekoop. Hou jou bek. Sluk daai brood. Daar is honger kjeeners in Afrika.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

En die kjeeners swyg en verwurg van al die liegte. Die liegte wat generasies in en generasies uit, die kjeeners afdrink. En hou jou bek, Phillip Larken. Jy lieg verder vir die klo-goed. Hulle moet in elk geval hulle bekke in \u2019n gatte steek. Lip kak, Phillip. Netnou begin glo die kjeeners jou: <\/p>

They fuck you up, your mum and dad.<\/em>
They may not mean to but they do.<\/em>
They fill you with the faults they had<\/em>
and add some extra, just for you.<\/em><\/p>

But they were fucked up in their turn<\/em>
by fools in old-style hats and coats,<\/em>
who half the time were soppy-stern <\/em>
and half at one another\u2019s throats.<\/em><\/p>

Man hands on misery to man.<\/em>
It deepens like a coastal shelf.<\/em>
Get out as early as you can,<\/em>
And don\u2019t have any kids yourself.<\/em><\/p>

Moen hulle nie behandel dat hulle opstandig word nie.<\/em> Wat? \u00c9k hou hulle bekke vol kos. Hulle sleg pa\u2019s soek hulle nie. Hulle pa\u2019s het hulle weggegee soos klein jack russells wat hondsdolheid het. Wie wil \u2019n kjeent h\u00ea wat vrot na al die foute wat jy jou lewe lank gemaak het? \u2019n Vrot ding is \u2019n ding wat weggesmyt moet word. Die mense sal skinner. Ons is kaalgatte, maar ons is skoon en die dominee gaan nou kom. Jy hou jou bek oor jou pa. Jy hou jou bek oor jou oom. Niemand wil \u2019n kjeent h\u00ea wat nie sy bek in sy gat kan steek nie. <\/p>

En die kis word gedra \u2013 in skofte gedra. Maar daar\u2019s nie bemindes in die hemel nie. Die bemindes is op aarde en hulle is breek soos \u2019n Pep-bierglas. Maak jou hartseer stil. Ruil dit om soos \u2019n Lil-Lets unscented pad. Jy het gekies om jong meisie te word. Moenie laat jou bloed se stink my neusgate verstop nie. <\/p>

Maar die kjeeners het nie gras nie. En almal is gemaak om te ly. Hulle het klaar nie eens genoeg water om hulle se lywe in skottels te was nie. Waarvoor moet daar nog gras wees? Daai is vir ryk mense met huise by die see. En daar word nie Kaap toe gegaan nie. Dis vir die ouers bedoel. Hulle gaan. Pas julle maar die huis op. Claudia en sy tikkop-man breek hoeka aande deur die mense se huise in. Hulle het nou die dag glad Doesie se 5 kg-hoennersak gesteel. <\/p>

Ek kyk Kompoun<\/em> en Grobz King se woorde aan sy dogter frommel my op soos \u2019n druiprapport: Ek vra vir God vir krag. Jirre, moenie dat ek haar fail nie en moenie dat sy ooit vir my sondes gaan kom pay nie. <\/em><\/p>

My kjeent is saf, ek wil haar nie hard maak nie. Vir haar gaan ek leer om \u2019n swaard te word vir al die ooms wat die kjeeners in die donker vang. Vir haar Alula-melk met Shire se woorde ingee: <\/p>

I\u2019ll rewrite this whole life this time there\u2019ll be so much love, you won\u2019t be able to see beyond it… Maybe we\u2019re okay, kid. <\/em> <\/em><\/p>

En Kompoun<\/em> laat sit my met los trane soos onverwagte re\u00ebndruppels. Almal staan op en klap hande, maar ek sit nog. My ma se woorde messel my teen my stoel vas: <\/p>

Lyntieja was my sagste kjeent. Die mense teen die pad het hom hard gemaak. Nou is hy s\u00f3 hardegat, \u2019n vlieg mag nie eens teen sy neus sit nie. <\/em> <\/em><\/p>

Ek staan op en klap met nat o\u00eb hande.<\/p>
