I would give anything for adventure if you would give everything for love.

Mama, Coming Home

In a boat, a wooden
vessel
Bamboo canoes and green water
Drifting
Tangles of roots and vines climbing the bank
Steep canyon walls
Mangrove forests and hidden lairs
Puddles of moonlight and stench of cave floors
Primal...

Return to the earth
through three thousand feet of watery haunts
Shifting spirits and slippery shadows
Beings of stardust
sprinkled from sky...

Mama Cocha
Ipa Mama
Pacha Mama
I'm coming home.
Embrace me
Hold me
Carry me
Take me by the palm, by the finger
tips
Guide me by the heartstrings
Whirling Dervish, Goddess of the Dance, Father Sun
Grandmother, Mother
We are one.
