In the most bizarre fashion, I’m mourning for a log. Once the king of the trees, the tallest among them all, it’s branches majestically reaching toward the sun, Now landed on ground, in chunks and pieces. I never knew him personally- we would only exchange polite smiles while we passed each other in the park - but he was always generous, always sharing his prosperity with passers-by. In the most ridiculous fashion, an elegy for a log.

Elegy on an L-O-G
In the most bizarre fashion, I’m mourning for a log. Once the king of the trees, the tallest among them all, it’s branches majestically reaching toward the sun, Now landed on ground, in chunks and pieces. I never knew him personally- we would only exchange polite smiles while we passed each other in the park - but he was always generous, always sharing his prosperity with passers-by. In the most ridiculous fashion, an elegy for a log.
