Atabey

A vision
A landscape of beautiful caramel & ebony beings climbing
over Earth Mother’s green belly
so as to nestle in her vast arms
wishing to suckle at her breast 
drink her golden milk
dancing & worshiping at her feet
calling out her near forgotten name
¡Atabey!
Wishing to live and
be reborn from her nurturing womb.
Lost children
Looking for what was once home.
