Permanent Sacrifice of the Masai Warriors
The warriors wake up before the rest.
They seek revenge from the lions leaching
from the blood of their livestock.
The Masai risk their lives for revenge.
They sacrifice for others.
The warriors walk into the arid Savanna.
Not knowing what will happen,
not knowing if they will live,
not knowing the journey ahead.
They sacrifice for others.
The roar of a lion fills the air,
but the men feel calm.
Knowing their strategy perfectly,
they attack with precision.
They sacrifice for others.
The lions razor sharp teeth
sink into young warrior’s neck,
blood gushes with the quick death.
The men's eyes drop to the ground.
They sacrifice for others.
With eyes of revenge,
the warriors whip the spear
into the lion's heart.
Victory but still defeated...
They sacrifice for others.
Put others in front of
yourself to change the
ones around you.
Make
sacrifices
for
others.
