[paraphrase of a Svan folk song]

You were born fully grown.

I looked into the starlit sky and saw
That you were the village
And you were the world."...

Slavic Folk Song
Don't eat the bear
and the bear won't eat you
Don't stomp on flowers
Don't spit on the dew
If you are a bad person
your life will worsen
But if you are good
then there's no need for cursin'
Yoi yoi la la la la yoi yoi la....

He said he was a "woman",
Just trapped in a wrong body.
When time came he had to pee-
Used the room.... for "Men".

That Magic
Eyes locked in dreamy gaze make
Hearts beat in suspended time,
When Love's magic fills the air
Reason's in a trance.

I Don'T Know What To Call This Either
Door shut, no way into her heartless chest.
What's that sound I hear? Just another folk song being sung by some sane passerby.
While he sings I'm in this shell waiting for the next day.
No one knows my true pain or my struggles.
The pain in my chest and in my head are too great to explain.
But you all know the struggles that I face.
If you don't know then I guess you better read more....

Love Like Raindrops
Love, like raindrops falling down
Embraced the dried barren earth
Each drop a soothing caress
That softens... and wins.

Oregon's Wizard Island Folk, Song
Windswept shave emulsifies the face
of the Lake.
The fowl in the air bnb, giggles,
as it scans for exfoliant fish to delicate.
She put her order in over thirty minutes ago.
Well before the Cranes and the Eagles,
but maybe they ordered to go?
Wizard Isle,
if you're gonna act like a French snob
then I will complain about the lack of salt,
(waiter)
how hard is your job?
Why this is culinary assault, inn 'salt !
