Linkin’ Logs

bare_treeTired of resting on my laurels & sycamore-more-more society, I treed something else. ‘Went to the beech and met a nut named Ash. We became fast fronds—it helped he had weeds—I hope you conifer what I mean, wink wink

(I’m sequoia)

Anyway, we made a bract. A pithy bract, and if you’re aspen what kind of bract, well the core of it was:

f*ck yew & the horse you rhododendron…

without the crummy bread, though

and Hansel

that’s nunya

without GPS, either, and you know he won’t ask directions

and the de rigueur archetype, off course, too

that’s lawless

Good, bad, or Clint Eastwood,

Just sayin’
