Faka...Fìkì...
It's an expression in Yoruba, the generic language of the Yoruba people of South-West Nigeria. I chose Yoruba cos that's one of those things that's stuck with me all through. And as a language it's damn rich.
Faka... fìkì... like a locomotive.
Faka... fìkì... like sex.
It represents the two sides of a coin; in... out...; life... death...; up... down...; fast... slow...; come... go...; war... peace...; good... evil; create... destroy...; begin... end. The list is endless. Simply put, it represents the 2 basic extremes which never let go of each other like a quarrelsome siamese.
And that's what I am.
Can I say that's what you are?
Can I say that's what we were all meant to be?
