by their fruit...

by their fruit...

A Poem by redd Brick Keshner

`

 

 

trees
by their yield
are known

but i ---
my sap is sealed
my root is dry

listening
(to death)
with stranded attention

death
too
can be sweet

in the dying breeze
thereafter, leaves fall
silent

Wonderfully dark, and greatly powerful for so few words.
