Chant
Chant
As we move in circular orbit around a roaring fire
Embers glow a petulant orange
Chant Chant
Display semi naked torsos painted in the colors of the universe
Only seen with the minds eye
Chant Chant Chant
Awake ancestors from celestial slumber
Remember your forefathers story
Human tambourines rattle and shake to invisible rhythms
Chant Chant Chant Chant
Masks mimic the Gods of the natural world
Sun
Water
Soil
Grow life from the ground
Chant
Your body an altar made of complex melododies
Embedded in dark skinned DNA
Invoke ancient prayers from the drum
We are the people of the fire....
