The Mile Long Tree

Kill off the Mile Long Tree For anyone who cares only cares about everyone Revelation in mind, we don't feel the same You should sort through your thick skull, my friend. Each twig, a secret forever held Each leaf, a statement never expelled. My dear dreamcatcher, though my dearest is radical, You're being ripped out by your roots, big buddy. You're calling for unhelpful help. So "Relational Warming" makes headline news It consecrates our separate views. They must've gathered some leaves, And ever too many twigs. You'll just grow another tree or two To make up for the 'loss' You'll just grow some extra foliage, Replace the grass with moss You'll just keep on making excuses And dwell on your own exhaust. But you're playing vampire in this romance, my darling. To blame, you have only yourself. You're dancing a dangerous dance, my dear You're calling for unhelpful help.
