I walked past a crippled corner
Where a man was
Digging in a ditch six feet down
Preserving the root of a
centennial dogwood
Where a man was
Digging in a ditch six feet down
Preserving the root of a
centennial dogwood
Jerky orange-hatted and hungry
For a fight he said,
“All this for a fucking tree?!”
On my heels at my back
He yelled, “Yeah, I said that!”
