Tree of Life

Yggdrasil tree of wisdom tree of secrets and tree of strife; eat her fruit the mind will grow; all her secrets she will show. Her tentacles like gray brain matter, give knowledge that all life will shatter. In right hands this world will grow; in wrong hands destruction flows. Take great heed of what you do; this world is left to me and you.
