Trajectory
of Po-To-Lo[1]
on a Dogon Night
We
come from the
Planet
of the red dog
I
heard Credo Mutwa say
Even
as the Dogon echoes hit my ears
We
take our beaded paths
Dancing
our way
To
trace Po-To-Lo
Floating
in infinite space
Riding
on invisible boomerangs
We
plot our return to the stars
The
glittering stars
Of our birth!
