“For a human is like the tree of the field.”
Deuteronomy (20:19)
“Tree Trunk” speaks of Mother Earth and Father Time. It is anthropomorphic. Solid, weighty, massively strong, powerful, unshakable, unmovable, long. The branches are massive fingers upon a thick wrist, or amputated body parts. Its roots, like elephant legs or claw feet, are planted deep below the ground, expanding its boundaries and borders.
It cannot be confronted or challenged, compromised or charged. It is. Majestic and strong, old, yet young. For always.
