*Pan - the deity of the wild, shepherds and flocks, rustic music, companion of the nymphs... close relative to the Green Man
Under the bracken there is gold.
Resurrection. Life after Death & Ghost Forests
she kept bearing the same fruit
year after year, always the same… they thought
so they got upset with her
didn’t appreciate her green leaves
her long grasses
her flowing river tongues anymore
they forgot her flowers bloomed with sweet nectar
her woods fell and she was taken deep into eternal sleep
they all missed her: the hedgehogs, the aphids, the wolves, the fungi, the ferns, the slugs, the frogs
maybe she died, maybe she multiplied into a swarm of wondering selves
since then however, every-time they passed a cave
or encountered a hole in the ground
or a hole in the sky, or a hole in their day
they heard her song
WHEN PAN EATS, PAN IS EATEN
WHEN PAN REAPS, PAN IS REAPED
LOTS OF LITTLE RIVERS FLOW ALONG MY VEINS
GREEN BE MY MOSSES
I WILL BE DREAMING YOU
UNTIL I WISH FOR DIFFERENT
FRUITS TOO
ALTERNATIVE UNIVERSES
HAPPY HEDGEHOGS
BEEQUEENDOMS
SWEET, SWEET RIVERS, GREEN MOSSES
