III. Forest Hiding

from Bigfoot Revelation by The Wood Prophets

about

Movements 3 and 4 are a tribute to the other side of the encounter: the point of view of the Bigfoots.

Of course, homo sapiens is partly a delusional, paranoiac, death-obsessed homicidal species, so it only makes sense to avoid us if you can. The "forest" as a living ecosystem that is the emerald jewel of all the creations of Earth (and perhaps of the entire Universe) is where a thriving alternative hominid species would, should and does hide.

A healthy ecosystem does not exhibit "balance," but rather it is the very truth of Balance itself. Decay into life, the magic of photosynthesis, the verdant alluvial abundance which dropkicks poets who attempt to stitch appropriate verbiage together in description or tribute -- it is the Forest (capital "F") that thrives and flows with symbiosis, the True North of the Wood Prophet. Only from within direct experience can it be understood. Onlookers, speculators, skeptics and delusional abstractionists will be lost from the start and can never see clearly enough to know why it is Intelligence itself that hides certain forms of life from the human gaze. Call it red in tooth and claw if you must, but in truth the Green will make no excuses and suffer no idiots.
