Ngaba akuqhelekanga ukubuza umntu ongamaziyo ukuba angene engxoweni kunye nawe?
Ingxowa ka-Yoko Ono's Piece (1964) ngumsebenzi wokufundisa: abadlulayo bayamenywa ukuba bangene ngaphakathi kwesaka elikhulu elimnyama, bathathe iimpahla zabo (ngokwahlukeneyo okanye kunye), benze umdaniso omncinci okanye nantoni na abayithandayo, banxibe baphume engxoweni.
Kukwenziwa kwayo ngoku kwi Yoko Ono: Omnye uMfazi uBonisa, ngo-1960-1971 kwiMyuziyam yoBugcisa bemihla ngemihla (ukuya nge-7 kaSeptemba), UNks Ono uyenzile impahla-ukhetho, kodwa bendifuna ukwenza oku kungo-1964, kwaye nomoya wobunzima buka-Ono, nomntu ongamaziyo.
Okokuqala, imibuzo emininzi kangaka: Kungcono ukujonga ubuchwephesha okanye ukuphindeka xa usondeza abantu ongabaziyo? Undies: icacile okanye ishushu? Amaqhosha okanye uziphu? Ukuzinza ekusebenzeni, ndikhethe ilokhwe ye-pullover engenzi nto kwaphela, eyona ngubo ikufutshane endinayo kwimpahla yokulala.
Okwesibini: Ubuza njani, kwaye ngubani? Ndisandisile isimemo sam sokuqala ku @ yonoono ngeTwitter, ndimazisa ngento endiyinxibileyo kunye nenyani yokuba ndiza kubakho kwimizuzu engama-45 (Ndicinga ukuba wayexakekile, kodwa isimemo simi.)

Imizuzu engamashumi amane anesihlanu kamva ngolwesiBini emva kwemini, bendicinga phakathi kwesihlwele esincinci esasihlanganisene sibukele umntwana ejikeleza apho okwethutyana. Oku kwandinika imizuzu embalwa yokuzibeka njengomnye wabantu, umbukeli kunye nam. Ndakhangela abantu abangatshatanga ndedwa; Izibini zinokhuphiswano, amaqela andibalulile, kwaye iintsapho ngokucacileyo ngaphandle.
Ndikhethe uJoe, indoda eyomeleleyo eneendevu kwi40 yayo. Ndivule ngento yokuba ndibhala inqaku malunga neNgxowa yePhepha ndaza ndabuza, ngokulula Ngaba unganomdla wokwenza oku kunye nam – njengoko bekucwangcisiwe kwasekuqaleni?
UJoe wahleka; wayeve nje malunga nenjongo yoqobo kwisikhokelo seaudiyo. Wazenza ngathi uyacinga ngayo okomzuzu emva koko ngenhlonipho wala. Enkosi ngesithembiso, kodwa… wanikina intloko.
Ngoba kutheni?
Owu, andazi ... Akumnandanga, ndiyaqikelela. Uye wongeza, Kuyahlekisa kuba uyenzile lento kuba eneentloni.
Ndifumene umntu osebenza naye, indoda ene-lanyard emhlophe, ndamxelela ngemishini yam. Ndibuze ukuba abatyeleli bahlala bethatha kangaphi ukhetho lokukhetha iimpahla. Ukhe wabona abantu besenza ngale ndlela rhoqo kwiintsuku ezimbini ukuya kwezintathu, kodwa kunqabile ukuba babini abantu ngaxeshanye, utshilo.
Isindululo sam sesibini yayikukuAnnika, umyili mhle we-blonde kwinto endicinga ukuba uneminyaka engamashumi amathathu, owayephakathi ekufundeni umbhalo waseludongeni. Ngaba ungathanda ukwenza oku kunye nam, njengoko bekucwangcisiwe kwasekuqaleni? Ndibuzile.
Wayepholile ngokupheleleyo. Yayicwangciswe kwasekuqaleni?… Oh, masibone…. waqala wafunda isicatshulwa eseludongeni kwaye ndabe ndimva encuma esusa iimpahla zabo… Ngokuqinisekileyo! Ngoba kutheni?
Oku kwakothusa, kuba uAnnika wayenxibe impahla enzima kakhulu. Wayebhinqiswe okwekumkanikazi wase-Egypt, enezambatho ezimenyezelayo eziluhlaza, uhlobo lwesiseko esomileyo, isacholo esikhulu, kunye nesibane segolide esinzulu entanyeni yakhe. Wayekhangeleka enamandla; emsebenzini, uya koyikwa.
Saxhawula izandla kwaye senza intshayelelo emfutshane kakhulu ngaphambi kokuba umqeshwa asingenise eqongeni nasezintanjeni ezimnyama Sika isiqwenga (ngo-1964) esenziwa ngu-Yoko Ono kwiMisebenzi eNtsha ka-Yoko Ono, kwiCarnegie Recital Hall, eNew York, ngoMatshi 21, 1965.

ingxowa. Sajongana kwaye sagigitheka kakubi. Ndizama ukwaphula umkhenkce ngokuqhula: Ndiva ngathi yile nguqulelo yobugcisa bemizuzu esi-7 ezulwini! Oku akuzange kuncede.
Kwaye ke ukugigitheka kuthulekile, kwaye kumsitho ongachazwanga (mhlawumbi ukuze kuthintelwe ukudibana kwamehlo), siye saguqa ngamadolo saza asavulwa, kunye nodonga lwelaphu phakathi kwethu.
Ubuhle besaka kukuba abantu abasesingxoweni bayakwazi ukubona kwaye akukho mntu ubonayo. Into ebesiyibona kukuzibonakalisa kwethu esipilini ngasekhohlo kuthi naphambi kwethu, kwahlanganisana isihlwele esikhulu. Umntu othile ebethatha ividiyo ngekhamera ekhanyayo. Sijonge omnye komnye, sabuya emva kwesihlwele, emva koko sapota kancinci.
Oku kuyamangalisa! UAnnika wagigitheka. Ekugqibeleni saphelelwa yimidlalo yokudanisa kwaye sazi, saguqa ngamadolo kwakhona ukunxiba.
Uyenzele ntoni? Bendifuna ukwazi.
Kulungile… unokuhamba ze kangaphi kwigalari yobugcisa? Wabuza encumile.
Kwaye kwakuphelele apho. Siye sabamba izandla, ndathatha i-imeyile yakhe, kwaye savalelisa. Indlela yam yawela ngokufutshane nomntu ogama linguAnnika, owayengazi nto ngam kodwa wavuma isenzo sokugqibela sokuthemba.
Ndaziva ndonwabile ngobuntu.
