Feast for Eshu

Notes from the band playAcross Eshu’s face as he waitsAt the gateWelcoming people to the feast
Twitches, glances, movements ofThe eyes, nose, and body parts below,Like the feetBetray a nature playful in tone
The guests arriveNow at the end of their Journey
Music, dancing and food awaitThem only after Eshu stops playingThe fool
