At Cross Purposes

1

Is this writing mine

Whose name is this

Did I underline

What I was to miss?

2

An upheaval of leaves

Enlightens the tree

Rooted it receives

Gusts on a spree

3

Beauty makes me sad

Makes me grieve

I see what I must leave

4

Scaffold, gallows

Do whose will

Who hallows wood

To build, kill

5

Blind man, anvil

No hammer strikes

Your eyes are spikes
