the pink lemonade and limeade colored graffiti lined street<\/p>\n

ten steps of a labyrinth slice<\/p>\n

the cunning leading the exuberant<\/p>\n

first fox, then bear, by his side girl child<\/p>\n

outrivals ambition<\/p>\n

leaving monarchy behind<\/p>\n

the adventurers who can’t get lost<\/p>\n

in the looking glass, called labyrinth
\nwith Kevin Peterson’s own thumbprint in the fox’s fur<\/p>\n

this is not a zoo portrait<\/p>\n

but a portrait of a zoo visit<\/p>\n

and all three animations are visiting not only the zoo<\/p>\n

but this portrait<\/p>\n

indicating the allusiveness of the Divine Spirit of Adventure<\/p>\n

reminding\u00a0not only of the creation myths called Genesis, of which there are two<\/p>\n

but the child on Christ’s knee,<\/p>\n

oh let the little children come to me he pleads and exhorts<\/p>\n

in Christmas red and green<\/p>\n
