The Oak Tree Is Dead

Unless I believe in myself I am dead. This evil’s depth I cannot tread. You can scan me up and down; Inside out and round and round, But, I’m a smile and you are a frown. I’m an actor and you’re a clown. Give yourself up and I might follow Just to fill this stump which is currently hollow.
