my legs, running but not touching the ground <br />my hands as if I was tying a very tight tie <br />thousands of blood vessels trapped <br />I used to love that tree <br /> <br />My legs helped me climb the tree <br />my hand helped me tie the knot <br />thousands of thoughts trying to escape at once <br />My cat used to love that tree <br /> <br />My friend helped me down from the tree <br />my friend also undid my tie <br />thousands of breaths all at once <br />no nobody likes that tree <br /> <br />I nearly died, the tree did. <br />The tree didn't do anything <br />but it got chopped down anyway <br />an eighty three kilogram burden within one high branch<br /><br />Geof Lusins<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-innocence-of-a-tree-shaken-into-guilt/
