The Tree

in #poetry3 years ago

What tree grows from the Knowledge...
Good or Evil?

In thought and reason, words given breath and form
A thousand thoughts exhaled
This wind carries the dust of flesh across the plain

Proclaim this good
Proclaim that evil
Gusts with each syllable spoken, the tree sways and grows
Nourished with the din and chatter

Calming briefly in our hubris as we feast on it's fruit
