death
with a thousand cuts
 
true

to bring down  
a tree
you don't need
an axe
 
a rain
of a thousand tiny knives
shall do
 
the tree
never knew
neither  
it's place
nor
it's strength
 
thanks
to the rain
it does
 
now
 
the rain
fell
tree
did not
 
the rain
failed
 
next time
 
dear rain
 
bring on
the tomahawks
