{The Tree: a poem for tree lovers}
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything so ugly as a tree
Its roots are gnarled, its limbs are busted
It looks like a ****** car that’s completely rusted
Once I climbed one, some neighbor’s tree
I fell when it broke & so did my knee
Nobody cared if I should live
A helping-hand to the tree they’d give
Now, when better & I have to ***
I do it, of course, against a tree
My leg was fractured in 6 places
I could see the concern on the medics' faces
They rushed passed so they could see
If there was anything they could do to help that tree
If it were possible with a tree to have a baby
Women would be rubbing themselves all over them
