This is a mural. I took this on the inside of a mall in Brooklyn.
This is growing on a part of the trunk of a tree. That yellow stuff is spreading. In person it looks a little gross. Not so much in a photo with a bit of editing.
This is another shot of another part of the same tree
inanimate –
being held in time by nature
an odd interplay

I especially love your poem, Pat–there’s something reverential or spiritual about it. And I totally love the Spread Love, It’s the Brooklyn Way” mural–marvelous!

I really enjoyed your poem – beautiful!
I am captivated by the photos that appear to show the tree growing around/absorbing the chain-link… is this what is happening?
And how can you not smile looking at the mural?!! Thanks for sharing π

Yes, regarding the chain link and the tree, that is what’s happening. I’ve see that more than once around here. I saw it in the park where they did an enclosure for a baseball field. That time they cut the tree down. But left the parts that fused together with the chain link fence just hanging. it’s still there. Weird.

Sad that the tree is being invaded by wires. I like the yellow moss and love photos like this, so interesting.

I think the tree is swallowing up the fence in revengeπ. Glad you like it.
