music and dance
people in a trance
directed frenzy
in the name of God
seeps into bloodstreams
threatens DNA disruption
to acquire permanence
action of masses
becomes the vehicle of change
nobody questions
if change is needed
and if yes,
to benefit whom?
Gods refuse to question
why are they invoked
at a specified time
-but take note
of exalted power
gifted by the powerful
-pleased like punch
they retreat to hibernate
