Landscape 04 Ailanthus Altissima (A High Coo) Poem by Stewart McKenzie
Landscape 04 Ailanthus Altissima (A High Coo)
Rating: ★4.8
Sitting quietly
Engine idling
(Waiting for a stop sign to turn green)
Spring comes
And the Tree of Heaven grows by itself
(Words in brackets are frivolous asides, not syllables)
