Lungs of the world

Sell the wood of ancient forests,

Chopped down to make way for bovine farming,

Long grown trees impossible to replace,

Now just logs on trucks, on their way,

To be used for fine furniture,

For some greedy exploiters to earn their way

But these are the lungs of our planet,

And cutting them down is leading to humanities decay.

    Spot on. There is a way to the stars too… that all can share and participate in. Some people (and bloodlines) simply will not share. It offends them that they should have to listen to or recognize anyone. Smells like teen fear.
