Goma means drum in Lingala and it is close to Kirundi which is Ingoma. Gombe is cow in Lingala as well as in Kiswahili. The drum is the principal instrument in Central Africa and the cow plays a sacred part in that region too and it is due to the Great Lakes which are important over there and that is why we have to be cautious with the pictures we see from there because the population tends to be secret.
The drums are playing
and are they playing for you
because you know playing
is not a guess you know too
because it is something playing
from inside of you too
to say how you feel when playing
and if you are sharing too
and therefore the music keeps playing
and there are a ways to listen too
and therefore let the music playing
because it is not only about you
