Yenuta's hymn

the fluid weather ways
of slithering Yenuta
who flies through clouds
in his serpentine chariot
his winged snakes strike
the earth in flashing fright

when he grows restless
his mood turns dark
and thunders within
his cloudy temple home

when he is distant
life recedes from green
and thirsty prayers are
raised to his temple home
in hanging gourd vines

the fluid weather ways
of slithering Yenuta
who pours down onto
his brother's flesh
to renew the life
the battle of this world
