Pandora

oh my god

i think i just met Pandora

you know,

the one with the box

but i don't think she's opened it yet

should i do something?

but what would i even say?

heyyy, Pan,

you know that box you have?

(not even mentioning the awkwardness that i know about her box in the first place, or her name for that matter)

well just don't look inside,

you know?

just, like, don't?

...

arghhh no no no that's just so awkward i can't 

it's gonna be so weird 

nevermind nevermind,

i won't do it

she might as well just open it

BAM!

i hit her in the head with a pan!

creeped up behind her,

took her out man oh man

reach into pocket,

take the box,

destroy it

until its radiance convinced me to rather

hide it

i dug under sand, not seeing Pan was becoming that at her feet and other limbs

pat, pat the ground i did

...

just a little peek.

a looking glass

gazing at me Pandora herself

from the reflection i saw behind me,

Pan completely dissolved into sand

there never was a body

I had seen myself, and finished the means to my plans
