<h1>Young Oak</h1>
<div class="preserve-whitespace">Young oak, potential tree
gashed by the hedger’s billhook
split and bent
lost your identity.
Had your acorn dropped
in a different spot
where the farmer thought
a shady oak should be
and ivy grew
to cling and threaten you
the selfsame blade
might have cut you free.</div>
