Boom, boom. Once, before lady corn was grown. Boom, boom. A flat land stretched for miles. Boom, boom. Buffalo ran from dawn to dusk. Boom, boom. Dust from their hooves trailed like smoke from campfire. Boom, boom. By night wolves like ashes of grassfire roamed the land, hunting the buffalo. Boom, boom. Tribe Pawnee Chawi followed like totem panther of shadows behind buffalo. Boom, boom. They brought with them their tents of buffalo skin, soft beaten. Boom, boom.

In this way the people learned to use flint. Boom, boom. Boy bound totem buffalos wound. Boom, boom. Totem buffalo disappeared in cloud smoke. When smoke rose away boy saw Goddess Atira. Boom, boom.
