Authors' Note: This verse drew inspiration from the poem "Cuore di Legno" (Heart of Wood) by Italian poet Primo Levi. In the poem, the narrator, an aged horse chestnut growing on a busy urban street, complains of, among other insults, being peed on by neighborhood dogs.
Other related issues expressed in verse form are collected on our blogpost "Urban Concerns".
