Just a month ago these trees had a central role- I imagine- in our universe. Decorated with baubles and tokens, they've fallen from grace and
now every street corner has one. I wonder how many trees are cut and killed in the name of Christ?

PS. No palm trees were killed in the name of art while making paper.
when I lived in NYC I always went home for Christmas and therefore never had a tree for Christmas. But every year when i went back to the City I would always find a tree lying in the gutter, with perhaps one piece of glitter remaining, to show it was once glorious and loved --- and I'd pick it up and take it to my apartment, whem, again, inevitably, I would have to be the one to relegate it back to the gutter sometime toward the end of January.....
