December 28th
December 28th celebrated in some Christian
churches as the feast of the Holy Innocents
.. those 2 year old baby boys
slaughtered by Herod
in his mad search for the little
Jesus.. He had been told of a prophecy
that a boy that age would grow up
to defeat him.
December 28th.. when little
baby trees.. slaughtered
.. begin to show up on the curb
their resident flightless
baby birds and squirrels
smashed or scattered
other trees' green flesh turned
into ephemeral wrapping paper
and Christmas cards
.... forests shattered
