If roots could write a letter
would it be of love or greed?
Would it be committee work or better
of men who stumble on the path to be freed. |
If trunks could recite a story
would it be far fetched or nearby,
where wounded men lean in glory
over fallen heroes about to die?
|
If branches could reach agreements
would it be a shaking of limbs?
Or would it be a bunch of concealments
accompanied by sappy hymns.
