V. 2. / 93.) The Garden Was Ransacked . . .




The garden was ransacked
The tree was cut down
Cut down to size
To see what was in it
They couldn’t bear her to win
They’d find fault with her somewhere

It was said that she left them
In no doubt as to her centring pivot
Who and what it was
It was all too easy to take her plain
And to tear her musings to ribbons
To decorate their hair

She didn’t care – she was already dead.
