PORTRAIT   OF  A   GANG-RAPE - CITY

--------------------------------------------------

( Poetry )

Leaves , twigs  and  branches  are 

but  manifestation   of  a  Tree

while   supporting  them , stands  behind 

and   below  is  the  Trunk

and   'Anchoring  Root '  ever  hidden  beneath !

 The  root --the  root  even  not  the  final  truth

It's the  SEED  that  makes  a  tree  grow  and flourish

Thrashing  the  branches  are emotional  Stage-play

get  to  the  root , -the  ROOT 

Or , --o   the SEED .
