Douglas Fir

Ken¹ Howe

It is easier to apprehend² the sacredness（神圣） of the Douglas-Fir in the

mountains, where it is more rare.

Frequently alone in a meadow, surrounded by dropped fir cones（锥形体）,

needles bestrewing its pedestal, its dais.

The Douglas-Fir can eschew³（避免） standing⁴ in a fire which burns but does

not consume when it interpellates a Charlton Heston or other

zealot（狂热者）. Its aloofness⁵（冷漠，高傲） is its sufficient interpellative act, cleanly

articulate in the thin alpine⁶ silence.

The meadow is filled with this silence, Ukrainian dolls of it radiating

from the tree, a choir⁷ of bumblebees in the goat-grazed grass:

the tree the omega point of a labyrinth⁸ of columbine and saxifrage

encompassing the entire valley and diagramming, in labelled

SI units, each isobar of its beatitude（祝福）.
