        The ancient pot dug from 
            The milky chest of the 
               Earth. Painted with 
        The blood of Asaase Yaa
     Echoing her cries with tongue 
   Of lightning and voice of thunder
Molded in the palms of Nana Nyame 
From clay mixed with His sweat, 
and 
Baked in His hot furnace of 
perfection
  You have been on the tripod of life 
      Flames liking your bottom with
          Smoky tongues yet you've
               Remained pure, sans 
                       stains of soot
