Pan

Pan You are so bright almost bright as the sun Soothing my heart with your truths sweetly spun Filling my soul with expansive belief Science and mystery both overdone Help me pursue a relief from the grind And with your touch our one spirit will find Meaning apart from the fading parade Marching too straight for my nomadic mind Teach me to find an escape from the light That shines much too pure for human delight Bathe me instead with a seminal glow That emanates from an ungirdled night Let it be time for our bodies to meet Yet as we stand on the unenclosed street Amidst our embrace comes a baleful whiff The eternal stench of smoldering feet
