      @flaredancer Apart from being beautifully hypnotic, what is the significance of this activity?

         @ceruleanspark Um... I'm not entirely sure. I think it started in one of the pacific island cultures but I'm not sure how it was used. It's performed I think just because it's pretty and fun. I know it goes over really well with the rave crowd.

            @flaredancer It IS pretty, and it looks fun (Pretty but fun?)

               @ceruleanspark The people who I know that do it say it's tons of fun. Fire poi is dangerous, too, because you can light yourself on fire if you're not careful

               @ceruleanspark And I was supposed to say, "I think it's performed now by modern western cultures because it's fun and pretty."

                  @flaredancer All the best activities carry at least some risk of catching on fire.

                     @ceruleanspark I can't argue that
