Temporary Reprieve
A field
Once flush
Now left to seed
Creatures burrow
In this safe place
Human nature’s reprieve
Yet in the distance
A rumble, dirt kicked into the sky
The machines are coming, urban nature astride
Once flush
Now left to seed
Creatures burrow
In this safe place
Human nature’s reprieve
Yet in the distance
A rumble, dirt kicked into the sky
The machines are coming, urban nature astride

I hate how we're purposfully destroying nature and our planet for temporary satisfaction. Great write.
