I came across this tree while out walking.

Someone or something appears to have tried their best to stunt its growth, to thwart its attempt to embrace the clouds, cut back its arms as it reaches for the sky.

The power company no doubt.

Deeming its branches too close to the lines, lopped it back in an attempt to exert control.

The tree it appears, has other ideas.

From ever severed branch and complacent area, off shoots are being called forth, a Medusa head of regrowth forming an army on an upward assent, on a quest to reclaim the sun.
