~The Kyphosis Tree

The chase commenced
as a full moon rose,
life to death is
how it goes.

One last tree
before the cliff stole pride,
no screeching tires,
they all died.

Tonight the
pipe is passed
and they'll dance for rain...

It was raining buffalo
before the passing train.

God save the Kyphosis tree,
gnarled in the moonlight.
The one time has forgotten,
her roots are parched,
her trunk is mossy.
God save the Kyphosis tree...

    A good write and a nice idea. A bit of touch of something out of an indian tribe of sorts. Though once it gets to the last stanza, it kinda leaves a cliff hanger in a way, as though I would like it to keep going.
