Tribal
Carnal
Thump, thump, thump
of the drums
of the heart
blood rushing
skin pulsing
wild chants
in the night
crying loud
in the heat
of the firelight
glowing
steady
bright
as the ritual
takes life.

Harder
Faster
Pound, pound, pound
of the bodies
of the sounds
suddenly quiet
sweat thickens
screams rend
arms wide
legs bend
dancing
frenzy
stop
The End.
