The Medicine Man
Have you seen him?
See who?
The medicine man
He stood by Idanre hills
Watching from afar
He gathered the clansmen
Offering sacrifices
Calling his ancestors
The specialist looked
Afar off
His enchantment
A ******'s surrender
Darkness hovers
Bringing down the spirits
Incantations
The words of the gods
A melodious sound
The Ifa Oracle's praises
The beating of bata
The fire of atonement
Smoking to the heavens
An appeasing of hearts
A sacrifice so befitting
A ******'s surrender
