Trees Can be Collapsible

Don’t take anything for granted.
Sit on a stump and pray.
Once a tree has been planted
compare it to a play.

Expect the tree to be heeled
The top half on the bottom.
This is a  tree to  wield.
A  doorknob in doors  forgotten.

How do you expect to climb
a tree that could buckle
Since the downfall of the chime
didn’t we invent the subtle?

I despair when I can’t create.
Why not jump out the window?
I can’t find a mate to date.
The Almighty needs a rainbow.

The fault lies between these points.
Call the infinite indefinite.
Explain the plain with your joints
and your hips to a hypocrite.

If languages were pure descriptions
I’d make love to the moods of the times.
Instead I wrestle with opinions:
Fluffy puffs fly by in minds.
