TWO TREESOur house lies between two trees – a Maple to the left, an Ash to the right.The skin of the Ash is all sharp ridges, like the back of a crocodile,Withered white.A large branch has rotted off, revealing beetle bores –Black scars like dots on dice.Melted iceAnd the last of the dirty snow surrounds it,In the folded yellow grassAnd the Maple pops out red buds like babies,Reaching eagerly to be the first to suckle sustenance from the sun.Its bark is gangly, gray and youthful.To be truthful,They’re like two people,In a house divided between boats and bankruptcy.Yachts, parks, schools, rivers and wetlands on one side,On the other: two billion dollars of debt and ten thousand homesSlated to be demolished.Honest.An old man gratefully survives another winter,A young girl carelessly embraces another spring,Somewhere in‐betweenThe Long Island Expressway and Mulholland Drive.She sees only the sun.He sees only the winters he survived;Ash trees are an endangered species in Michigan.The old man reads voraciously, like he will never see another novel;Like he will never write another line, or rhyme,Or smith words together with a red‐barreled pen,Racing across twenty‐two pound paper in bright blue ink.“Let me think,” he says, “Let me think!”And he thinksHow to pull his rotting roots from the ground and get to the ocean,Because he is the Once Great Ash,At the end of another winter,In a land made for Maples,To suck up the sun.We live between two trees.But only for the briefest of moments.Seasons always bringSome kind of change.
