When the tree spoke

I remember when
the tree spoke to me-
A wise, lush green thought.

i love this one. might you be willing to have this used in a derivative art work? the lines will be exactly the same, just that there may be additions in terms of background etc. you will be credited with the work, and receive a portion of royalties if it gets any!

was thinking of tee shirt, with a graphic o some sort. or a poster? or spray painted on the chief minister's car? (aaah. that would be so much fun...)

was thinking of a really provocative graphic, that clashes with the ethis of the poem. partly for the two pieces (poem and graphic) to comment on each other, partly because i love provocative. (not ALWAYS, but often)

how about i work on a couple and pass it by you?

tht wud be grt featherbone.. t-shirt sounds cool, rather than the party car though.. :D .. have u seen the tantra t-shirts by any chance? i love those for they ve grt graphics and also some witty messages... go ahead. jus ensure tht the get the due credit and royalty is more than welcome.. he he he

hmm. tantra will be a hard act to follow in terms of artistic vision and or size of production. think on the lines of tantra with a hangover...:)
