photo of a sunlit large pinkish-yellow lady slipper orchid in front of a stone walkway with a sign with an arrow pointing that says entry

for nothing shabby even
then, green and golden
(they were)(i was)(i was saying)
still being (whole)child

and now i guess somehow very
well, flown and flowing
if (they) would already
(let)be of a youth(maiden)

— the meirax is (moist)fluid as a slipper
river maiden golden child
the meirax (is) slippery and loud
river maiden wild

οὐ γάρ τι φαῦλος
οὐδὲ τότε
ἦν
ἔτι παῖς ὤν

νῦν δ᾽ οἶμαί που
εὖ μάλα
ἂν ἤδη
μειράκιον εἴη
