Life's Lament

The redwood forest has been caged, corseted its skirt hemmed Who would think there'd come an age when trees where kept enclosed And so I cry and so it goes. as we bid good bye to all of those. Seeing nature is now all the rage even stars have dimmed Dominion over nature's stage has killed many winged. And so I cry and so it goes. as we bid good bye to all of those. Man has devoured fish, fowl and sage ravenous and blighted And so in truth we can't assuage our hunger once cited. And so I cry and so it goes. as we bid good bye to all of those. The sky where ghostly bird do fly depth where ghost fish swim The forest where the trees all die Man's been the death of them. *Meant to be a song.
