SunDance

Before sinners began to turn away

We were moving, causing universal sway.

A prayer for the sakes of delivery of memory

Guaranteed on-times, and lost lines redefined

We dance and pance from dusk to dawn in song

 

Watching the least face east for the very first time

Elders keep steps in a slide, empowered by drums

Dust rises and fauna mimic its rhythm with the ONE

Wetiko  howl in  silent  envy as  high noon illuminates

All shadows are temporarily imprisoned yet again within

 

The young tire under the sheer weight of the collective response

Discreet attractions reanimate as the sun moves past a quarter

Daughters and sons of  the most righteous shield their views

Desiring to touch  and  spend time  away  from tribal review

The evening  falls  but  the most  faithful keep their dizzying pace

 

 

 

Darkness creeps in on the legs, slowly moving up backs turning to shrugs

Faces are sun drenched yet  determined  hold  hands  to increase security

For the night frees the  shadow of the inside no longer  bound by its own light

Young and old must keep company with  the familiar  desires that proliferate

Procreate in signs and designs  that  began  from the earliest  time, they dance

A new dance,  a  different trance, comingled,  yet  necessary for it is relative

Sleep  returns  for  this  also part  of  the  spell that leads  to recovery in dreams

Visions  are  kept in  place  as  the  race 2b  reborn by  the earliest light of dawn

 Leads on  to  the blessing  of  recalling  our  place  in the circle of habit  that

Is the norm  we  treasure  of the give  and take for  the  next day  of  sun  rays

that make  all  to  SunDance again!
