Time                Evolution in the midst of time growing rapidly,

Growth            Evolving the smallest cell and seed

Power Into a giant stone chunk of wood,

                        Stretching its mutinous legs

Throughout the soft peaceful ground of sound.

The life of a wavy wallowy willow on an ONP hill

Is a long, dark and lonely life,

Standing there all alone,

With nothing but the cold black demented worms squirming and Squishing between this Treebird’s lost sad sappy toes.

 

Bleeding emotionally

Aging intellectually

Dying intensively

 

So lonely nothing dares to see or touch a tree,

For a tree is a mere piece of paper you dare to look and draw upon,

Only the light blue dancing sky and soft gentle creations

Dare to roam through the fingertips of a green standing heaven

Above a world that seems so far away,

Graceful tree bird embraces its face of intense happiness

For nothing and no one can bring him down,

He lives alone in a spot upon the hill.

 

Away from the rest

Away from the bunch

Away from a life that never gets punched

 

So sad but yet so happy,

No friends but yet still a child,

No pain but yet a broken heart,

It is only clear now

That the clear sticky blood that runs from above

Comes from a love that hides in the wind

Mocking a soul

Of untouched happiness.
