A Prayer for the Adivasi

I pray the Adivasi will never forget to sing


the language of birds and waterfalls
To you they are birds
to me they are voices in the forest
the land grammar of my soul
Pragmatic, poetic
house of my being
a carrier of meaning
loud with voices of place and villagers

-opus125


The image was taken by me at the Kathotiya Jungle Camp outside of Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India.
