Stand up for your right
Get up, stand up
Don’t give up the fight”

This biting tree no longer bears fruit

An overgrown trunk on the pipe of a storage tank

“Ich bin dein Baum, o Gärtner, dessen Treue
Mich hält in Liebespfleg’ und süßer Zucht,
Komm, daß ich in den Schoß dir dankbar streue
Die reife, dir allein gewachs’ne Frucht.”

( Friedrich Rückert, no title)

Has never been employed –
Though his surpassing Merit
Is freely certified”

“The brain is wider than the sky,
For, put them side by side,
The one the other will include
With ease, and you beside.”

“God of the good side
Brought me some good luck today
In the weather
And in my life also”
