This is a tribute to the Incas, my ancestors. This is how I felt whenever I went to Machu Pichu or any other scared place my ancestors were. Even though I don't know much about them personally, I still miss them. Damn you San Fransico Pizzaro!(Don't care if I spelled his name wrong! Ha!) When I meet you in the after life...! *Sighs* I swear, If the spanish hadn't come and stole all my ancestors gold, Peru would've been the most richest country in all the world! Instead, we're as poor as a mouse...even more than that! It's a good thin about half of those ships carrying the gold sunk to the bottom of the sea while traveling to Spain (Hehehe! serves them right! Greedy bastards...!)

Listen To The Voices Of The Incas
I feel the soft ground
Tremble under my feet
As I climb up the mountain rage
Of Machu Pichu
I can feel the sun bask its warmth
Upon my frame
As my eyes cast down
The sight before me
I stare down
At the lands my ancestors once roamed
Now empty of life
Only the vast memory of them
Once being here
I felt like I have entered a place most sacred
I dare not speak
In fear of disgracing this place
With my voice not worthy enough
To speak my ancestors language
The sun disappears
The cold comes as I
Stand there, still, and quiet
I feel an ongoing
Feeling of flying
Up to the heavens
As the many voices of my ancestors
Whisper softly into my ears
They fill my head
Their language unknown to me
As I stay where I am
Listening to the many voices
Of my ancestors,
The Incas
Their very words seeming to make my heart beat
More rapidly
Then before
Oh, the voices of my ancestors stop
And I open my eyes,
Longing for their presence again
Only to find silence
How long I have stayed
I do not know
All I know is that
I have heard them
My ancestors
And it lifted my heart more than anything
To just stop and listen
Anyone who shall go to Machu Pichu
One of the sacred lands
Of the Incas
Should stop and listen
To the many voices of the Incas
My ancestors…
My people.
