Bleeding heart by @joelmaxwell

Breeze has ceased to blow
Birds chirping to and fro In the starless sky,
finding their ways to It nets.
Traditional drums heard from the palace,_
In a distance.
Men chanting, telling folks and parables.
Soon later,
traditional music Is sang by them...
Kolanut and hot gin Is brought forwards before those,_
beating the talking drums
Everyone dancing In jubilation accord to the drum beat
Sooner later, silence forged In the atmosphere,
everyone stiffen with fear as the news arrive every ears.
UYAI, has been arrested...
The elders who were sitting, stands up with blend feelings
Who..?? Okon screams
Eyes wild opened, tears stung his eyes.
He manage to stifle a cry.

Everyone departs the palace one after another
A door from behind was banging,
opening and closing noisily.
After a while, the door swung shut...
The king palace remain mute as Ubong walks In
drag the wooden chair toward him,
sits and gave a loud belch. Later he get to his feet

What Is really wrong. Where Is Ekok the great one
Where Is he, the healer.
The god that see's with six eyes. Where Is he now ?
He stops talking and turn to left-over paim wine,
swallows all and returns It to It place.

After some minutes, he lead his legs to his mud house,
Following narrow entrace from the palace...
