Another Freaky Tree

Whenever anyone thinks of the East Village, right after God and the flag, they think of freaky trees!

This one is growing sideways on St. Mark's Place:

Growing sideways.

The branches do what they can to correct things, growing perpendicular to the trunk, but with little success:

Little success.

It reminds me of a poem I learned as a child:

I think that I shall never see
a poem as freaky as an East Village tree!
