P 4 Pan

and tacking north north-west when the wind was in the south
i could tell where we were heading
prospero's other island where the pied piper took us
children
singing as we went

singing

yes i believe!

i have faith in your clockwork logic
we can fly along your wires

and we danced right off the stage
down along the trenches
and out of the age

we
do not age

under this flat feld
in the compass of an island
in our never never
land.

Hm... I'll have to look that up...

it's very strange and moving - but also very sad i'm afraid.

from the stories told to the children to the stage production of Peter Pan itself and beyond to the fates of Barrie and the family and friends, the pressure felt by some of 'being' Peter Pan, the events of WW1 and later etc.
