Hopeless against

this force of intrusion

Timeless woodland

stripped down of resources

Folded windpipe

its air is growing thin

Cut down, forced out

former inhabitants

Some may describe it as nigh

for this breed to reach its height

Building, plot

Conceiving

Holding leverage over

outcome of landscape to come

To come

Total collapse

natures ecosystem

Rivers run dry

results in mass extinction

There is no attempt to salvage

Give no second thought just proceed

Design a way to thrive

Protect this way of life

Life

Strengthen each link of this pack

Determined to secure this new form of habitat

This new form

Total collapse

natures ecosystem

Rivers run dry

results in mass extinction

Extinction

Hunt

Track down every link

Overturn every rock

No longer a mysterious

vast uncharted landscape

Hopeless against

this force of intrusion

Cut down, forced out

former inhabitants
