Tamati dances He dances the haka to thank Rangahore For her gifts to her children, the rocks Tamati dances He dances the stories of his ancestors For the people who come to learn, the children Tamati dances He dances destruction and creation Earth moves when he plants his feet, the roots Tamati dances
Tamati thinks He thinks about Tane who made Mankind And left all his wives to do so, even Rangahore Tamati thinks He thinks about promises broken open Like things split by volcanic heat, even rocks Tamati thinks He thinks about other gods and godesses Known for creating and destroying, even Pele Tamati thinks
Tamati grows He grows as a person and as a supervillain Building connections through tunnels, underground Tamati grows He grows as a brother and a tribal member Expanding his family through marriage, surprisingly Tamati grows He grows roses and herbs with his Tuahine Covering planters of lava rock with green, budding Tamati grows
