The Lightning Man. In life we beat out our time; knees bent, singing and dancing. In death our spirit, reappears in human, plant and animal form, recycled; reborn. In telling our stories; we move through the days and walk in the past. We push up mountains and invoke the rain. We cut our bodies; dress in leaves, oil and paper bark, We paint our bones red with ochre returning to the womb from which we sprang. Nothing has changed...all is as it should be.

The Lightning Man
Hey dilly, day-lilies, sing me a song As I walk past your bed, as I dally along In the night, lilies, day dillies, I'll pass ere I go And see petals tucked daintily, forming an "O" As I pass, dilly dally, as daily I pass Will you twist your green stems, entertain me at last?
