TANZANITE SKIES

TANZANITE SKIES

Distant sounds of a kalimba carry on the whispering wind

breaking a stifling stagnancy of oppressive heat

Tributaries in the distance, pulsating and rushing forth

away from their mother, the source

of life

Carrying the sweat of a thousand warriors labours
the lion tamer

nomad who roams free
knowing every facet of these harsh, unforgiving lands.

carrying the inherited tutelage of elders, 
the visionaries and keepers

Those illuminated minds with pleochroistic vision

who speak of dying wisdoms

with all the compassion and eloquence

of a unified heart and mind

Blood and milk

food of Arusha

Fractured cultures , a people polarized

trying to keep ancient consciousness alive
their connection to the land, entrenched in their psyche

Kilima-Njaro in the distance watching over their land

Protector of secrets, 
the missing link to reaching higher realms

amongst trichoric deep blue violet and aquamarine skies

There they are bathed, and linger, in an incandescent auric field 
of the most extraordinary and pure awareness

that one day life is favorable, 
the next, it can be whisked away

to the spirit world, where only a few can commune and stay 
in tune

with the complexities of unseen levels of the vast universal order

under the guidance of Namunyak

beneath the Tanzanite skies
