cut the tree

I wouldn’t say that I have found what I was looking for
I wouldn’t say that I was bound from what I am hiding from
These people follow me
I had the sound inside of me
The sound’s a crowd
My face is history, it’s never forgiven me
I didn’t say that I was sound
I found that I was beckoned, never to be seen again
I see the man I want to be, his name is purity
(The Wolfgang Press, Cut the Tree, 1987)

Sorry.

I see trees in your eyes. Do not cut down trees!

[Brad Johnson]

Great shot.

[Joanne Diochon]

Wonderful, if disturbing, image. The poem I'm still thinking on.

[KWind]

Very intense!!

[Lynda McG]

Oh dear, this one looks too much like you are a car crash victim - made me shiver!

[J A Byrdlip]

I know that expression as a result of a tree falling : https://365project.org/byrdlip/2019/2019-05-23

[Graeme Stevens]

@byrdlip Ah yes, I'd forgotten about that...
@lyndamcg A shiver will do as a reaction :)
@kwind Thanks very much :)
@gardencat I was aiming for disturbing so that's good :)
@bradsworld That's one way of putting it ;)
@haskar I wouldn't dream of it!

[Issi Bannerman]

Yes, disturbing is definitely the word. And excellent.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

you manage to go beyond disturbing so poignantly :)

[FBailey]

Can we please see a pic of you without enhancement - or would that ruin the illusion? Your editing is superb btw

[Jane Pittenger]

You got the disturbing down...wonder if you can do peaceful equally effectively

[Graeme Stevens]

@jgpittenger I would put good money on the answer to that being a resounding probably not ;)
@fbailey Yes, yes you can...it's right here: https://365project.org/graemestevens/365/2019-05-16
@koalagardens It's my catholic upbringing...
@jamibann Thank you very much :)

[Julie Duncan]

Very intense and yikes-worthy! :)

[Graeme Stevens]

@juliedduncan Just what I was aiming for :)

[Larry L]

Very dramatic image, works well with the lyrics.

[Graeme Stevens]

@lsquared Thanks very much :)

[Shanne]

reminiscent of Jack Nicholson in The Shining - that poster image - hauntingly scary

[Graeme Stevens]

@shannejw I worried about this one to be honest...thought I missed the mark

[Annie D]

ooooh I do like this!

[Graeme Stevens]

@annied I'm so sorry...
