Write the Year 2021—Week 51: As Lovely

It’s come to this. I have written a poem about a tree. It’s a weird tree. But still. This is a cadae, which is a poem based on Pi.

Title: As Lovely
WC: 49

Encircle
me
like roots gone wrong.

Rise.

Or don’t. The purpose
might well be served by excavation.
The trick
is never to look down.

Seems easy enough.

Coyotes
and their mountainsides
can hardly hope to outsmart us.
We come equipped with hollows, thump proof
and perfect for curling up.
