Can you even begin to imagine Strange Fruit?
To walk and see them as normal.
For children to pass and not understand the gravity of what they see hanging.
How did they explain the sight to them?
Can you even begin to imagine Strange Fruit?
The wind gathering the scent causing them to choke on the smell of decaying flesh.
While swallowing an overwhelming sense of fear.
Never knowing who could be hanging tomorrow.
Can you even begin to imagine Strange Fruit?
How did they wrap their mind around seeing the familiar faces of loved ones?
Twisted and distorted.
Crows eating them as if it's the most natural thing in the world.
Until they are unrecognizable.
And yet on display as if works of art.
Can you even begin to imagine Strange Fruit?
