Request From A Tree
The scar on my leaves
The tears unseen, through the root that sieves ,
My greenery when you cut down,
Left behind are only sellable logs of brown.
The brown which you ornament your home with,
The crowns of skyscrapers you own on the lands I lived without permit,
Pampering you with cool waves of green
But still you continue to slaughter our lives umpteen.
I would ask why would you not pay heed,
To the human lives in name of modernity a mislead.
An apocalypse is all that awaits your interruption
If you don't realise the importance of nature in these years of succession.
