stems of an earlier world
once cut down, now
breaking toward light,
a prickly bush glaring
at the neglectful world
like an angry child throwing
fallen apples at the windows.

I love the title of this poem, and the mental image of the bush "like an angry child throwing apples at the window". Quite wonderful.
