Simplicity

Things were simpler
Way back when
There were trees
Touched lightly
Kissed by breeze
Nothing was mowed
Chopped or burned
The world would turn
Simply
We had only 

One another
Before They came
Made other plans
Cut down the trees
Poisoned the breeze
Tore up the roots
Burned everything else
The world still turns
But everything
So much more complex
Unnecessary
Where has it all gone?
