Keeping These Stories
My people all dead. We only got few left.
That’s all, not many. We getting too old.
Young people.
I don’t know if they can hang on to this story.
But now you know this story, and you will be coming to earth.
You will be part of earth when you die.
You responsible now.
You got to go with us. To earth.
Might be you hang on to this story. To this earth.
You got children, grandson.
Might be your grandson will get this story,
Keep going, hang on like I done.
