《Raindrops》The Culture
Advertisement
Guided by moonlight
Spilling from the shadows
Predawn mania commences
Dancing silhouettes unveiled by streetlight,
Curtains part to spectate the welcomed ruckus.
Energetic drumming coaxed gyrating hips,
Paint, mud and oil smeared bodies in fervour
Steelpans clang in harmony
As bands of colours trot downstage.
Molasses-slicked devils dragged by
Lock and chained waists as they
Wildly dance despite restraints.
Telltale stilts alert all
Of the Moko Jumbie.
Necks crane in wonder
At his backbends and jigs.
Bodies hang off balconies
Offering money as tribute.
Alcohol stained breaths
Intoxicate the air,
The crowd sways
As mas is made.
An audience gathers,
The gayelle is filled.
The men begin their carray.
Bois crack and flambeaus flicker,
Chantwells are sung and bongos roll
Spectators call for blood to spill.

Not to mention all the different franchises and characters I am going to mention, I don't own a single one of these nor do I claim to by writing this, I just want people to have something to enjoy since I am drained on my other work.I hope you enjoy, and to say it right off the bat since this is something that upsets me, I don't mind if you're critical of the work, but jesus, don't be rude. I love criticism but I hate people that go and put a 1 star with no reason, but if you put 1 star and give me a good reason then I'll use it to grow as an author! Thanks everyone! Hope you enjoy the story!
