The river runs longer than the road.
Everything all living things used to know.
The sound echoes in my head.
I'll try to forget it you know I will, but I can't.
The concrete suffocates the ground
The lights outshine the stars.
I hate every bit of it.
But I am the one who put it there.

- Comment from author about the poem: I wrote this poem after I was in the car and my father and he hit an animal. I started thinking about the terrible things man kind has forced upon nature, so I put down my feelings in words!

Join the club. There has to be a better way for us to occupy our beautiful planet than out continual rape. I have no answers, but i do call out for change as you do here. I recently wrote something similar.
Your writing is good and thought provoking.
Thank you thank you! I'm glad someone else feels the same way!
We kill, we maim, we change, without any regard, but every once in a while nature does come back to teach us a lesson.
Great writing a__pott!
