Tribal Idols 

Sing

your heart

out; hear the

pulse speeding up

Voice harmonizing

with persistent callings

received from strikes of a drum

Hollow yet reverberating

notes that beat within our ribcages 

set us free from the blazing inferno 

A/N: Hopefully you visualize a bonfire and a bunch of tribe members (wearing costumes with paint smeared all over their faces) dancing around in a circle and chanting to praise their gods. ;)
