The Missing Link

The tree and the bird  
the bee and the flower  
the sun and the moon  
the heat and the shower  
 
The silence and the sound  
the ear and the music  
the heart and the feeling  
the brain and the thinking  
 
The wild and the wise  
The Human and Nature  
the wild is inborn  
the wise is artificial  
 
From the wild comes the rule  
Into the wise mind instilled  
While the city is the filter  
The rules then, are broken  
 
Nature's facts disfigured  
all the trees became timber  
the animals taxidermized  
and the lakes evaporated  
 
The truth is sophisticated  
the rules are self-created  
away from the natural norm  
and they say it is normal  
 
So the wild will be created  
by human's law manipulated  
and the birds in the tree  
will be  mercilessly executed  
 
And the tree will be alter  
for their own brainless actions  
for they don't see the bird  
who sings only for the humans  
 
Everything in life runs backwards  
from the epilogue to the foreword  
the story ends before it begins  
the romance dies before it is born  
 
Stop here ! make an in-depth account  
just relax,  judge the case's ins and outs  
what is going wrong when we then fall?  
Alas !  Nature is no longer the norm
 
 
 
-pleasz, listen to Aranjuez-
