Turned Sideways

“Walls turned sideways

are bridges.”

—Angela Davis

roots serve as anchor

foothold for those unsettled

essential support

Growing Sideways ~ Banyon trees are known for their aerial roots that grow from the branches and descend to the ground where they anchor the tree and form additional trunks. Some specimens cover several acres with their sideways growth • Photo by Jan Logozzo • “Turned Sideways” haiku and blog by Mary O’Connor
