Litchfield trees - for Dale

October 4, 1984

The mill on the river is a squat temple by pyramids. It takes a pyramid of trees and gives a pyramid of boards, and the buzz saw goes all day, thin as a silver moon, and a man sends down to it and a man takes away from it. Two men have a silver moon. The pink inner winters of a tree are revealed like a secret. The door is opened to the white inner summers. Two men have a silver moon. The trees are revealing a secret.
