by their fruit

Folder: 
reworked vintage

 

"by their fruit"

 

trees
by their yield
are known

 

but i -

my sap is sealed
my root is dry

 

a muted weight descends

 

listening
(to the sepulchre)
with stranded attention

 

death
too
can be sweet

 

in the dying breeze
thereafter, leaves fall
silent
