The Land of Unlimited Possibilities
watching the old deer’sskull dissolve backinto the forest,look how much longera thought may linger –how much longerthan i thought.
and this flying insect at restlooks like a small bitof leaf or bark –on long legs –runs errands ina square foot of forest floor –stops at thealder leaf, the salmon berrytwig, a small piece of moss,this old thinking skull,and her vertebraein orbit.

A great show for celestial aardvarks
It’s like eating banana pudding through my ears .
You're all wrong
I have to disagree with all the other commenters here. No, there isn’t a quiet lust within the voices. Not at all. Actually I find them to oscillate in blank somnambulism within the portico of banality. It’s nothing like the brain forest of that OTHER podcast, you know the one I’m talking about. Dark sister. Massive figure skaters of speech. Heavy bleeping.
But to be fair, the subjects on offer in this series are fatalistically apt and nearly always paraphrastic. You have to give it that. Besides, there are more than a few modern possibilities for stick figures to get scribbled within the inner sanctum. I reluctantly enjoyed episode twenty in which five small bears are immolated, fur and all. Their eyes were quite glittering in the hurry to let their molecules out into the exosphere, don’t you think?
My only suggestion (and this is non-negotiable) would to be add some sound effects of anachronistic surplices. I think the swishing involved might be just the thing to knock this one down the fallopian tube and into the world of signs and signified. But I guess we’ll just have to stay tuned to see how it all turns out.
