Cantata

Cantata He stood there on a plateau that only had a tree, And since he had appeared from nowhere, there Was there no past to bother with? He sat under the tree mainly because it was getting hot, the tree had big, thick leaves and Beside the tree, there was a barrel of cold water. During the day, the plateau became shimmering He saw ponies trotting past like a knitted poncho. Since he had no past, a fragment of a future Instinct told him they were going to the Green Vale That had grass, shade, and a lagoon that reflected The sky, or was it the other way around? He sat there and tried to visualize the future where he didn´t Exist, but he failed, which made him human.
