In the very beginning of the world, Enkai was the only god: the guardian of rain, fertility, sun, and love. With that love, Enkai birthed three sons who became the Fathers of the three tribes. Enkai gave each tribe a gift to help them succeed in their new home. Upon the Father of the Kikuyu, Enkai bestowed a hoe to cultivate the plains. To the Father of the Kamba, Enkai gifted a bow and arrow so his people could hunt wild animals in the forests and plains. To my father, Neiterkob, the Father of the Maasai, Enkai gave a stick.

Hussain Khan looked at us and growled, "What do you think you're looking at? Get back to work."
We bent to our looms, but then we quickly peeked over our shoulders. Hussain brought the new boy over to an empty loom in the row next to mine, pulled out a rusty shackle, and locked it on the boy's right ankle.
"This will be your place, here's where you'll work," he said.

Read this poem.
Feet pound pavement as miles pass,
Steady as tides, they approach their shore,
Training is tested, strength is stretched—
Buoyed by the pack, one mile more.
Sweat streaks, muscles tense, eager for the end,
Final flags beckon, the crowd grows loud.
Tested vessels reach their harbor—
Runners hearts beat proud.
