Analysis of Come with me



Come with me,
To a place of beauty, with the call of duty, arise and come with me to a place called Djibouti, a boomerang shaped country in eastern Africa close to somalia and Ethiopia, where men chew leaves like caterpillars, a leave call "khat" what's that? A kind of leaf that makes people dreamy and thin so they are no where close to being fat and this is a real fact.
Come with me,
To south Africa, to see the red blanket people of Xhosa, people who speak with a click, their tongues and teeth perform quite a trick.
Come with me,
To see the lobi's of Burkina Faso in west Africa, they file thier teeth to points, people who are fierce and strong, they believe in "joro" a god, and a deity.
Come with me,
To Ghana, and see the vagla's whose musical tongue can be spoken by beats on an African drum, I call them "people of the talking drum"  and when they speak you will think they are singing songs.
Come with me,
To north Africa and see a tribe called "Riff" in Morocco, they are called the Berbers of the atlas mountains, and not too far from Morocco in is the Dogon's of Mali, a people with five days In a week, the Dogon who climbs very high to caves in the cliffs far in the sky, they also love ceremony and dancing.
