I saw a large tree from a distance, its canopy was triangular, evenly distributed, perfect and well maintained.
As I approached the tree, it was as wide as a house and higher than I could see. When I stood in its shadow, sunlight couldn’t penetrate its canopy and it was dark underneath. There was life all around, but no animals, the tree was alive and the root growth was enormous I could see the roots move, grow. I heard the sound of the wood growing and moving, it sounded thunderous and splintering.
Seeing fruit on the tree, I climbed closer. The roots were enormous now. I climbed and slid over mountains of them, touching each one as I moved closer.
There was indeed fruit on the tree, some star shaped, some crescent moon shaped, both shiny platinum colored and glittering. When looked for a low piece so I could pick it, I noticed stems of fruit that had already been picked that were left on the tree. I took one of each fruit and ate. One was flavorless and with it brought a feeling of apathy, laziness, and sloth. The other was very bitter, much like a persimmon and purged one’s digestive system must like a stomach virus or food poisoning would bring cramps and dehydration through vomiting and diahrea.
I looked around for a gardener and only saw a black lantern hanging on hooked staff, like a shepherd’s staff. There was a gardener, but he was away and has left the lamp hanging on the staff.
