If the fits
of Nature love
such a poor expression
for Pan wandering in
the ruins
you caused the grass
to sour
and spoil the milk
-we drank wine from a goats bladder
and slaughtered a lamb
actually we ate crackers and
cheddar cheese
and Monterey Jack
I knew the actual Monterey Jack
he lived in a rusty quonset hut
-he got hit by a train while walking drunk on the tracks
you can't hear the train coming
the noise comes after
Pan was playing a flute
-it was not a pan pipe
regardless
we couldn't hear it
either
