Reach

I see the forest
through the trees.
Whispering softly
in the breeze.

The black pools
swirl underneath.
Quietly undisturbed
for centuries.

I hear the song
through the trees.
blissful, at peace,
tranquil, and serene.

The filth of their dead in the air they breathe.
The souls of their ancestors fuel our machine.

Fort McMurray? I might be round those parts myself. Grande Cache Perhaps. I'm working as an assistant land surveyer in Alberta.
