Benign Forest Poem by Douglas Scotney
Benign Forest
After a bashing murder
in a lowland forest,
in a mountain forest,
the nightly blanket
of the breath
of trees and birds
silenced birds and trees.
A tramper
not making it home that night,
no-one took as a worrying sign,
because that forest was benign.
