Phillip part II

The people wandered around beneath the tree looking at their big white rolling nest. Pushing and pulling on bits and pieces of it. The whole time the thing was whirring and banging. One of the two eventually climbed onto the nest and into a bucket at the end of a big folded arm. The bucket shuttered and then as the arm began to straighten, the man was lifted straight upward into the branches of the tree. Splitting his looks between the tree and the truck he was pushed upward through the leaves and into the canopy connecting the tree to the house on which Phillip sat. The man looked over at Phillip, let out a strange gurgle, showed his mouth full of teeth, and then jiggled. The man on the ground replied with a similar gurgle and show of teeth. Then it started.

Using some noisy tools, the man began tearing branches from Phillips tree and tossing them to the ground. The man below drug them away and fed them into the back of the moving nest. With a horrible grinding sound the branches were shredded and what was left was spewed into the back of the truck. Branch by branch
