Re: The Giant Finger Holes, the Marriage of Tada.
This is strange, where am I? There is no down, I'm sure there used to be a down but I can't feel the pull of the Earth dragging me down. Every way is the yielding press of... what is it?
Was there pain? I'm sure there was pain, but not now, where has it gone?
A heat all over me, inside me even. I'm sure I was burning up but it's gone, it's... warm, it's comfortable. It's so hard to breath, why am I struggling to breath when I don't need to, it's so warm and... encasing in here.
I'm... not me. I'm... yet to be me. I'm.... That's it, I'm waiting to be born, here in my mother's womb waiting to be.
The eyes of the one who was Ohanzee slowly close for the last time but then within the Darkness a deeper Darkness sweeps past those eyes. I'm not alone! Who's there? Do I have a twin here? There was another I'm sure there was another... a... brother.
Are you there? Who are you?
I am here. I am Eyota
Are my brother?
In a manner of speaking
Why do you have a name? Names are not given until you are born!
You gave me the name. You have many names, you are Ohanzee Shappa, Ohanzee Blue Arm, Ohanzee River King, Ohanzee Chosen of Raven.
There are more names that you are known by but now is not the time. Look, a shiny thing.
There are no shiny things here in our mother's womb, only darkness and warmth and the pressing of her belly all about.
There is a shiny here look Again a deeper Darkness flashes across his now open eyes and as it passes he notices that there is the faintest of glows within the Darkness.
Ooohh, a shiny! Mother will not mind if I look after it for her. After all she'd not have left it here if she minded. His fingers reach up to his face where it is, the wall off the womb always pressing but yielding enough to allow movement. He touches it, fingers groping around it I'll just look after it. I'll be safe with me.
Nice and safe, nice and safe. That's it, hold it nice and tight, don't slip away now, don't let it slip away now.
Fingers reach around encasing the light in a tight grasp That's right, nice and tight. Don't slip away.
With a tight grip on the light the being who would be Ohanzee curls up into a ball comfortable and safe within his mother's womb and as he does so there is a tug, a ripping, a great spasm.
There is a down again, the pull of the Earth returns, a squelching thump of body hitting land and the curled up naked form.
Cold. It's so cold. I'll sleep.
No, you must stay awake.
I am just born. I have not the energy to wail and the only thing left to do is sleep... now.
