    /// Half-goat Pan, horned and laurel wreath crowned,

    consoles Psyche, (she’s sad she’s not drowned).

    Eros wouldn’t forgive her,

    so she jumped in the river

    which expelled the girl here on dry ground.

    /// Eros said, “Never look on my face!”

    But she did, to her heartfelt disgrace.

    Her love, Eros, then left.

    Psyche, feeling bereft,

    wanted death, but ends up at Pan’s place.

    /// Psyche’s butterfly wings Pan won’t mock,

    for he sees that the poor girl’s in shock.

    “Kid, you could make it big.

    Try this modeling gig.

    Kneel down tøpless upon that White Rock.”

    He had goat breath and her wings were too delicate. It was a one nighter; a flash in the Pan.

    What a girl needs a bit of advice/

    She knows that she needn’t think twice/

    she heads straight for a Satyr/

    And discusses the matter:/

    (Every Satyr is well-versed in vice !)///

    Here the artist depicts one who seeks/

    From a satyr to learn new techniques/

    And she’ll get them for sure/

    For he sees the allure/

    Of those exquisite little “Twin Peaks”…

    She is “making it big”, in a sense/

    In fact, it is growing immense/

    But the painter can’t show/

    What’s occurring “below”/

    Without “decent folks” taking offense..

    The first step in starting a strip club is interviewing the strippers. That way, if it fails to come together, it won’t have been a total waste of time.

    Pan Consoling Psyche

    Paste (including the quote marks) 

    "File:Ernst Klimt - Pan tröstet Psyche, 1892.jpg" site=commons.wikimedia.org 

    (syntax supported by the Google, Yahoo, Bing, Duckduckgo, Ecosia, and Yandex search engines) in the address bar (or search for it using one of those search engines) and click the first File: found for info and links that point to more info about this painting.

     

    Again, a larger strip image is shown by merely clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s THROWBACK THURSDAY: MASTERPIECE #1565 (10/25/16) (August 31, 2022) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment, and using the dropdown menu. I have added a comment there pointing to the blog entry with the artist info I used to point to here. First work by this artist used here (2 times total, including this Throwback Thursday repeat), the October 25, 2016, strip being its first use (the 18 hyperlinks in my comment there have been deactivated, and the line breaks removed, but perhaps the text remains informative).
