You, fairy that I never saw,
you were the queen of the kingdom of which I dreamed one day.
And you, my dear old tree,
you have been a kingdom’s castle and know it not.
Of a kingdom with a single soldier
who searched for witches and wanted to stone them—
of a kingdom that lived every day—
the many thousands that once there were.
Oh, if
no one told me
that fairy tales cannot come true, I would be there right now.
