PAN


Two pronged horn,
the Goat God watches night.

At dawn,
he will reel you in.

Across the ice cold brook,
he will look,

his reflection
in the water's shade.

His music will play,
on this his holy ground.

So be alert to guard,
all possessions you have found.

And the love that you cherish,
your sweetheart he will woo,

by stealth and by trickery,
decieving you.

But under these illusions,
harbour similar false pretence,

he will strike as the sun scorches
leaving nothing to expense.

So bow as though in admiration,
and slyly let him think...

You care not for his kingdom,
his deciet and his bluff...

Hold tighter to your sweetheart,
it will surely be enough...
