I’m The Queen Elephant
Image: Lina Marin
I am an ancient and giant creature,
Tender and loving.
Upon me are the marks of my ancestors.
Marks of love and wisdom,
Says the Elephant Queen.
I guide lives to find the path of water.
I am calm, by nature.
If you clench your teeth and point at me,
You make me be the beast that is inside of me,
Because you are the mirror of my pain
In front of the universe.
We must not keep our secrets with our tribe.
If we keep dirty secrets,
We are doomed to a miserable and unhealthy life.
Elephants have no secrets.
We shamefully expose our pain
Before the world with humility.
