Invocation to Obatala Great White King Great White Queen Pure as the snow On the tops of mountains, To sit in your space On your white cloth Is to be in the high place Of objectivity And perfect justice. To work with your hands Is to create life anew Being both father and mother Being the healer of wounds That has no gender As healing has no gender. To touch with your vision Is to see past the flaws And faults of your children To a cleaner place of fairness Upon the high unbroken snow.
