This personal exploration with a friend was very deep, we were
philosophising mainly on society's reactions to minority groups and the psychology behind it.
We considered ourselves to be in a sort of nomansland sociologically, each for different reasons,
but the Vosges valleys provided the most beautiful "nomansland" imaginable for our discussions.
This song is the slightly mystical, and somewhat understated, memory of those days:
Here in nomansland
where all had fled the weather
we waited patiently
and enjoyed God's sun together
Here in nomansland
a grandson of Adam
residing in his earthly grandfather's home
the woods and sun presiding
Here in nomansland
Hermes' and Aphrodite's son
sings cuckoo to the ill-shorn mountain top
and then is gone
Here in nomansland we sing
to the other's consolation
whilst peaceful dog and cows look on
at our natural
perchance divine
