The Forbidding Forest


I try to tell the truth.

The truth ain’t poplar.


Men frighten me.

Jesus is an exception.

He knows about trees.

We visit once a week.


A pine planted himself between me and Jesus

“Men aren’t scary,” he growled.

I looked up to Jesus.

He stretched out his arms and we sighed.
