Ancestry
Chthonian deity ancestry
prologue of a story written
to unfold in future days
as in past tense immortal
on the earth’s bosom
a drum to pound with your palms
eyes observe, lips accompany
heartbeats accelerate
clapping during
the ceremonial sun dance
earth opens its gaping mouth
to swallow the civilizer
with his dogma
war dance, vitality
of our youth who stand against
all odds and carve our future
on tree trunks hollowed, made
ready to take us up and down
the calm river of tranquility
