This is awesome buddy! Great read and so true!
It’s amazing what all we can gather from a tree. From shelter to literally the air we breathe!
Loved this!-

Rush’s The Trees came to mind while reading this.
Strong piece with excellent rhythm, rhyme and flow. Well done.-

I was lucky enough to see Rush 7 times. I believe they played the trees 2 times out those. Thanks for the comment.

That’s pretty awesome. I did a whole Neil Peart tribute as part of the NaPoWriMo at DU back in 2021. That man was influential to musicians and writers.

Silencing beauty is one of mankind’s (and I use that term loosely here) gravest mistakes. We need beauty to get through what comes

This is the kind of poem that doesn’t ask permission—it reports from the wreckage. “A poem that will remain unfinished” is a brutal, honest truth, and the blood imagery isn’t sensational, it’s earned. I like how you refuse comfort here—no soft landing, no false resolve. The idea that the poems must replace her voice because they have to is devastating. This reads like a witness statement, not a performance. Necessary, angry, and painfully clear.

This one hits hard. I’ve watched that video over and over again.
I saw another where an agent told a protester, “If you raise your voice I will erase your voice”…while I’m thinking, then the thunder of the masses will drown him if he does that. I can’t wait for the trials and all the video evidence.
We will say their names forever so they are never forgotten.-
