PAD DAY 11. Ekphrastic Poem - The trees are growing people

Mikola Gnisyuk, “People in Trees” (via Baibakov Art Projects)



The trees are growing people



The trees are growing people

hanging fruit
waiting to be torn
from bare limbs
and incinerated

The trees are growing people






*this photograph called to mind those who attempted to escape the Nazi death marches into the forests ...
