Apple Trees
MARK O. EVERETT
We were on this car trip,
And I was looking at these rows and rows of trees all along the highway.
I don't know what kind of trees,
Apples or something.
There were just like thousands
And thousands of rows of a thousand trees each.
And I picked one tree that
I could see about eight trees back in this one row in the middle.
Just one in a billion.
And that's how I felt.
