Replying to a comment on:

Seekers (Free verse) by Dovina

A tree with crocked branches brushes gently on stucco, the rough siding of a church, suggesting to the church how differently men and nature seek. While nature trembles over herself or stretches awkwardly, asymmetrically— yearning, adjusting, our houses stand measured and precise, our concepts bold and plum our utterances contained within walls.

1) Where does the siding in the poem come from. At least in the South, siding is an actual material made from wood or more commonly plastic, and not just "the side of something", as you seem to have it.

2) What distinction are you making between flat and plum in the comment above? (PS-Congratulations on bringing plum back into the mix! Good one!)
