“…yes we’ll drive out into the forest and wait until the moon glows up above. We’ll smear mud and pomegranate seeds on our faces build a giant fire and wait for the sun to put it out. We’ll be fed and nurtured back to health by our surrogate animal parents. You’ll eat berries from the bushes. I’ll learn to fly and you’ll learn to fish and I’ll fly down river to join you. And when we are strong and healthy and ready we will return to the human world with new skills and a new perspective. We’ll be free.”
