A story song.. Be aware! Stories of feral children are not very pretty in reality. And most of the time if you approach a wolf (Without a gun) you probably end up in its stomach.
I have been walking a lot.. Trying to adjust to the way my epilepsy meds make me feel.. (Going through yet another change) And I end up in a forest a lot.. Around people I become conscious of
the way I feel and feel even worse..
I have a lot of memories attached to a forest.. I grew up in a house in the boonies and I felt safe
in the forest.. My friend from city was always scared in the forest.. I was not..
The walks have been kind a morbid.. But at the same time.. I see the cycle of life.. The leaves
fall from the trees.. The deer eat the tree bark from willows, the willows die standing up.. Fall
to the ground.. The mold and mushrooms eat the dying material.. The air is full of life.. Quiet..
Yet it speaks a lot to me..
Yesterday I noticed I picked up a stick.. Very naturally.. And it made me think of children.. What
do they do in forest? Almost without exception they end up with a stick in their hands.. And as the
stick ends up in your hand.. It becomes a gun.. A sword.. You attack the air with it..
Because the truth is.. The instincts are telling you.. Be aware.. Things could be looking at you..
That made me think about what we lose when we become part of society.. We lose the instincts
that feral children and animals have, tuned to a perfection.. They have tried to eat everything.. They
know what all things are due to experience.. They know the forest like their own pockets..
It is their Facebook, their world..
Coming home I read a little about feral children.. And found out that a lot of animals can adopt babies.. Monkies.. Pumas.. Goats.. Sheep.. Ostriches..
I was thinking about that first moment..
When a baby wonders in to a forest.. Faced with a female wolf.. Maybe cubs of her own..
Expecting the baby to be like all people.. But instead.. Fearless.. Curious.. Making the meeting
something completely unlike we will ever know.. That leads to the adoption by the wolf..
Truthfully, most of the time the child probably ends up in the stomach of the wolf.. But when they
do not.. There is something.. A story of universal understanding between species.. That even
animals can care across species.. That even animals can.. Love..
Maybe scientists would not call it that.. But what do you call the way your dog feels for you?
So.. Here it goes..

Wolf Man
human baby
alone and crying
takes some steps through
pristine forest
and a wolf she
hears him crying
little baby
in the forest
and she running
feeling hungry
coming closer
to see the baby
and he reaches out
and she is confused
years go by
a wolf calls
with a human voice
a wolf man
he had no choice
and he is running
through the forest
and he is crying
for his mother
a wolf man
he has no name
he can not speak
he can not write
and she cares for him
like he was one
of her babies
just a baby he
loves his mother
in the forest
that he feels is
his true home
he can read tracks
he knows every single thing
he can eat
when it comes to survival
he has phd
he is never alone
he always has his pack
with the wolves by his side
feeling safe in the wild
a wolf calls
with a human voice
a wolf man
he had no choice
(repeat)
