How many trees can one tell
When many an axe have scarred
How many comrades have fallen?
In that forest so far
Saws and axes
Hatchets of stone
These trees topple back to back
Their wood breaks like bone
Sap falls like crimson rain
Foreshadowing to our barren end
No amount of love can change their pain
Stumps as a symbol of what humanity can wrend
What is wood worth?
What will sate this dirth?
(Here's a lil poem I wrote, just got mildly inspired by a stump outside -w-")
