Life sustaining forests

Deep and dark is the Verdant forests

Supporting the ecological balance

Supporting many plants and species

A multitude of branches and various green leaves

Giving rise to undergrowth so vital

Fruit bat’s dropping life giving seeds

The ecosystems structure of the forests

Surpass much more so than technology

And yet despite there primordial eldritch nature

We choose to cut and burn them down

Without the understanding and with our ignorance

We choose the path of unbalance

Despite the flow of beauty and life sustaining properties

Arrogant men just destroy it all

Cut down and burn and ravage, the earth

Leave nothing but a landscape of horror in their wake

Ignorant arrogant selfish man

Sacrificing forests as if in its way

Yet without them it spells the end of days.

  1. “Leave nothing but a landscape of horror in their wake” These types of people exist in every level of humanity. They just don’t care about others. :_(
