    The TREE
    tree
    from head to toe
    leafless.

    THEY
    thwarted her mind
    for over five hundred years
    and exposes her to crude cruel wind
    form …

    It’s bark
    had been battered
    with bullets, swords, alcohol and missals
    just to stop her from growing.

    The birds in the air
    no longer nest on her.
    Although it rains
    still no green blossom,
    her roots had rotten.

    This TREE
    was once a citadel for all birds
    her nest and itinerary stamps are vanishing
    as her flutter flank that looks like the
    ears of an Elephant had all disappeared.
