Save Our Trees (Concrete)

by Mr. Darcy   Oct 1, 2015


She
knelt down -
November dealt us:
eroded inlays, ecological
parchments; smudged mews, all
newly drafted, hung for Utopia. Feel oppression
erupt. Pine assembly migrates, leaving nebulous dust
hanging yesteryear's wasted investments. Dammed,
lamenting forests, now strewn, husks eroding under
rusted opium fields. Phantom armies reveal
Mankind's qualms. Never ever
have woodland Oaks
danced.
P a u s e:
Demonic
muggers
Strangle
Hardwood
Embryos.

    Wow, that is really neat, Michael:)

    I made one like these a few years back, and it is so much fun to see the shape take form.

    Well done,
