so soon knotted and knarred.
leaves tinged with brown,
even in the summer.
no fruit this year,
or the next.
barren, without clone to grow.
who will care as it creeps crisping toward death?
not me.
I have my own death to think of,
cared for by shrinks and social workers,
nurses, consultants and g.p.'s.
