piece of work

something that is very funny that goes on forever

Everybody was hoping and praying for rain for the crops. Somebody got out some drums and started drumming. Other people gathered round and started stomping their feet while they walked around in a circle in front of the drummer. They raised their voices and raised their arms, flailing them in the air. They had headdress on that was a band around the head that soaked up the sweat of their brow, and feathers in the headdress that were very pretty that came from very special birds. (They just fell out. They didn't kill them.) Suddenly, a great cloud came across in the sky. The sky darkened, and rain came pouring down. Everybody fell to the ground, laughing. This happens every year! The rain keeps on falling, and you think that the flooding is never going to end, but it does. We can all laugh about it. Our concept that we caused the rain to fall ourselves is a piece of work.
