There's this tree in Park Slope wearing a sweater. It's a fuzzy orange sweater she may have knit for herself while attending Oberlin's special campus for trees. Her name is Calliope. It's the holidays, and she feels really naked and vulnerable right now. Dogs sense this and move on to the next tree to do their business. In the spring, Calliope will bloom again. [IMBY]
