New Beginning

The New Beginning And far away from city life and murmour sings the forest. Trees will grow out of streets shake asphalt off branches In stillness the forest will cover land and aeons will pass in tranquillity until small antlike people appears from caves, hairy monster covered in ****. They will clear woods make dwellings and they will kill animals in the forest plant, corn and harvest death. And a society will arise one that knows nothing of the past. When they have time invent love and think they are the only one who has the capability to feel empathy. Invent the alphabet write sentimental love songs extolling their virtuousness, then cover the land in asphalt. But as always, if you listen, the forest sings a dirge.
