Bogolo Jwa BoModimo

By Mpho Matsitle on Friday, June 8, 2018

Every morning, from way back when, I wake up with a song playing in my head. I have come to call it Pina ya Seporofeto. This morning “Bogolo Jwa BoModimo” as rendered by the St John’s Brass Band Choir was revealed to me. Itself not a strange occurrence, it is after all one my favourite …

Two Socks in a Pod

By Mpho Matsitle on Thursday, May 24, 2018

There lay two socks together. Two socks, not a pair of. No – far from it. One sock, long almost as if a stocking, was a dull pink with shades of wear and tear. Especially around the heel. There the pink had faded to a translucent off-white. Which today looked like a stained white. For …

BO-I-TUMELO: For Asiphe, mgan’am…

By Mpho Matsitle on Tuesday, April 24, 2018

This one of Asiphe ALWAYS demanded more of life; I guess when life inevitably failed to come up to her level, a parting of ways was the only option left. For she is now no more about this life.   I first met her early 2012, on my first assignment at PwC, she was a senior …

Rooftop Bioscope

By Mpho Matsitle on Wednesday, January 17, 2018

It’s a chilly night. He knew it’d be chilly even though it is still February, and he told her as much. But none of the jackets matched with her outfit, decided on weeks ago, so she dared not interfere with decisions made early and sober. So she ignored his warnings. It was summer. She was …

Matla Sona Ke Bophelo

By Mpho Matsitle on Monday, January 15, 2018

Two am. We all had a bit of wine – oops! I mean the blood of Jesus. His body too; just for control. The hymn – #211 Sioneng – sung during the three hour-long Holy Communion service. Actually just one verse of the hymn is sung. Slowly, deliberately, I daresay lethargically.   There will be …

Get Well Solange; Solanka We’ll Check Ourselves

By Mpho Matsitle on Thursday, December 28, 2017

What people don’t know about me (except, of course, the four +1 who wished me a happy birthday) is that I am a hater on the outside and a groupie on the inside. No, fuckturd, I am not confessing to being a hypocrite. What I mean is, when I am outside, I hate (call it …

Celibacy & Other Cute Little Things – A Short Story Anthology
Pope Chronicles: The Ministry of Deputy Boyfriends
about the books

CELIBACY & OTHER CUTE LITTLE THINGS is an anthology of salacious short stories exploring tales of beauty of music of laughter of sex of love. Of the little pleasures of life; the minuscule moments that make human faces shine bright with wide smiles. Tales of friends of family of lovers of colleagues of comrades. These short tales are meant to excite the brain, to illicit smiles, to provoke laughter. In short; they are cute little things.

POPE CHRONICLES: THE MINISTRY OF DEPUTY BOYFRIENDS is a quirky and irreverent fictional memoire of Pope Emeritus of the Holy Alliance of Deputy Boyfriends, and an exploration and exaltation of his ministry. A tongue in cheek self-help manual to unburden men from the fear of being cuckolded through misappropriation of religious and political jargon and theories to tackles issues faced by the modern man in his amorous relationships.
