Useless Dead

Useless Dead

A Poem by JR

These dead fruit just hang there

Useless limp on the branch

Wilted and withered they

Hang lower every year

The branch straight and arrowed

They hang lower every year

Useless dead and shriveled.

Is this just an observation, or is there symbolism here? The useless dead fruit seem to be contrasted with the straight branch, and they hang lower every year. Sounds like a comment on the state of things. They don't appear to be improving.
