Primal Art
I have no words Don’t know how Chilled rain outside Dirty cave Lips quivering, Body trembling
Dark knight Bright sunlight Dark knight Nothing to do Fire is out Burnt sticks Next to the fire I feel an urge What to do
Grabbed burnt log Stain on my hands Brushed my hand On cold cave wall Left a mark, Now a straight line Made a curved line Drew a head And a tail. Like an animal It is I do another one
Ah, an old bone Had blood on it Touched it On cold wall Smeared on animal
Tall man walked in Laughed at my animals On the cave wall Saddened me Felt bad
Days passed Ground offered colors. Put more animals On the wall The cold rain stopped Bright sunlight I left the cave

“In recent years we have seen increasing evidence that Neanderthals were more sophisticated than previously thought, from cave markings to use of decorative shells and raptor talons,” said Pomeroy.
