A Wicked Kendragon
Look, I'm barking up the tree. I'm doing it. See?
Is it the wrong tree? How should I know? What does the wrong tree look like? What's up there?
What is the right tree? What does barking at the right tree do? Is barking at the right tree supposed to accomplish a goal? Do things rain down from right trees barked at?
Are there more right trees or wrong trees? Do they hang out in little tree gangs plotting against each other?
Do they whisper to each other in the night? "Look, there is the wrong tree. See how wrong it is. It's even in the wrong place. Grew all wrong. Nothing up there but nothing, that's how wrong it is. Not even squirrels climb that tree to be barked up at."
Are the right trees tired of everything climbing them all the time? Are they tired of the barking?
Do I not feel bad if I am barked at? Do I not matter in your endeavour to bark at everything climbing me? Is that how they feel?
Or am I barking up the wrong tree?
