Very generous of you. Thank you.
I've read it. Allegory aside - pretty obvious, right? - trees send a different message, in real life. Othen than that, you described a society where the common level of consciousness is Muladhara chakra, or the root chakra - with all its specifics, harmonious (less of that, in your text) and perverted (an abundance of that, in your text). I feel neutral towards your post - while I appreciate your descriptive power, the message gives me the creeps. :D
I appreciate you took the time. Giving the creeps is provocative so I'll accept that :)
I heard in interviews that when Neil Peart wrote the lyrics for "The Trees" he thought it would be humorous to envision trees acting with all the absurdity of human beings. Therefore the trees are meant to be people. The tree analogies sugar coat a hard pill to swallow.
My goal was to expand what he already started.
"Therefore the trees are meant to be people." - yes, I got that.
"My goal was to expand what he already started" - you did it - good writing, like I said, I appreciated the skill. I still maintain it gave me the creeps :)))
