Please Stop!

the sky black or maybe blue
the clouds ebony or maybe white
the stars are oh so bright
the tide is high or maybe weeping
most humans are asleep
but some are not
some are working
cut cut cut
thinking money
just think, what could the trees see?
their friends and family getting cut down, dying
how do you like dying?
you know, if we cut down all of our opulent trees
they will die, even though they did nothing
and we will die too
at this point, we probably deserve to die
this wouldn't have happened if we weren't alive
so that brings the question:
would it bring this rotting planet
good or bad?
I think we all know the answer
humans may be evil or humans may not
but what you're doing, please please stop
the trees give us oxygen
and we give them, well, nothing
all we give them is cutting them down
for fashionable furniture or pretty paper
why do we want to kill our opulent land
that many humans and animals
have stepped foot on?
if we keep going like this,
maybe not anymore
just to let you know
the world is rotting
rot by rot
