[Kumalo visits the chief.]
Kumalo climbed the hill to the place of the chief and was told to wait. This was no strange thing, for if he wished a chief could tell a man to wait simply because he was a chief. If he wished he could tell a man to wait while he idly picked his teeth, or stared out day-dreaming over a valley. But Kumalo was glad of the chance to rest. He took off his coat and sat 5 in the shade of a hut, and pondered over the ways of a chief. For who would be chief over this desolation? It was a thing the white man had done, knocked these chiefs down, and put them up again, to hold the pieces together. But the white men had taken most of the pieces away. And some chiefs sat with arrogant and blood-shot eyes, rulers of pitiful 10 kingdoms that had no meaning at all. They were not all like this; there were some who had tried to help their people, and who had sent their sons to schools. And the government had tried to help them too. But they were feeding an old man with milk, and pretending that he would one day grow into a boy. Kumalo came to himself with a start and 15 realised how far he had travelled since that journey to Johannesburg. [Book 3; Chapter 2] |

EXTRACT I
[The narrator attends a meeting with Father Fikeni.]
I had heard of imbongi – a praise poet – but I’d never dreamt that I’d see one in action.

I only remember that when the man had finished and people moved forward to congratulate him, I knew I was too tired to even clap my hands or join in the ululation and whistles. I just sat there and in my dreamy 5 mind saw myself in a kind of similar attire, doing what I had just seen the man do. I made my decision there and then that I was also a praise poet. That was a beautiful moment, to think of myself as such. I shook a few people’s hands and the minister introduced me to the chief, who thanked him for coming and laughingly asked what I was doing at such a meeting. 10 |
