Analysis of Trash Trees
Danielle Ruzicki 1998 (USA)
How I love to
pick some fruit
for a snack,
sans the loot.
However today,
I took a bite
and something just did not feel right.
I took a look
at the fruit I bit
(significantly less succulent)
and to my dismay.
To my fright.
There’s was nothing but trash trees in sight.
