Hear me Dionysos,
I am like a stray dog, who’s escaped from its home. I roam the streets and in this freedom I feel real, alive, born truly, and the woods swallow me and the rocks slice my feet but this here, this is right, but not quite. Because in past lives this was mine, this wilderness, and I knew it and I was fierce for it But here, now, I have been changed and I no longer know how to survive, so I grow weaker, hungrier, and I know I don’t belong but home is not home and I wish I did, and I am not fierce but I am free and that should be enough.
