Poet, Mak Manaka, performed a praise poem to the patron of this year's Zwakala - Be heard. He specially wrote and dedicated his poem to Ma Sisulu. "Speak, Mama, speak. Speak with the womb on your tongue that gives life to metaphors while judgemental similes embrace the ground you stand on. Clouds of the smoky world clear the sky for you to fly with open wings, even birds love to hear you sing. 'Cause your voice carries the undefined shape of that curly dread hair. So speak, Mama, speak. Mother of beauty, your smile heals the wounds of impoverished souls.
