Buildings

buildings 
of steel and stones

sprout up like weeds
filling in oceans 

cutting down 
mountains and trees

shading  bones
of past and present

blackening blue skies
and streams

as they take over now 
and future

encouraging the flies

I enjoyed reading this, although you did lose me with that last line. But still a really good piece nonetheless.

The process to kill nature has started since long time.
