• Gazing at the fire
    Burning by the water
    Before he speaks, the world around us quiets
    With eyes as sharp as arrows
    And turning to the fire
    He clears the air and cuts it with a feather

    Many in a circle
    Slowly round the fire
    When he is gone, I want to know him better
    No one is forsaken
    No one is a liar
    He plants the tree of life on our foreheads with water

    He hums
    There are drums
    Four winds
    Rising suns
    We are singing and playing
    I hear what he's saying
    I remember breezes
    From winds inside your body
    Keep me high
    Like I told you
    I'll sing to them this story
    And know why
