	Hear Me, a Tree
	Greetings, being, I am a tree And as a tree, I'd like to say to thee That being a tree, was an honour, you see Tis' a respectful thing to be a tree But unfortunetly, being a tree is not all that it's cracked up to be I've been simplified into a commodity Something bent, and sold to the industry It saddens me now, being a tree But I know you're life depends on me So I'll bend and twist unhappily Because this is my task, my soul duty The basis, the reason I am a tree But being a tree, I ask this one favour To merely respect me, for all that I am Because in the end, the equation remains You need me, but I *don't* need you So there you have it, I am a tree And your time is fancied delightfully


	An Ignorant Thought
	Dinner time, it's six o'clock My meal today is nice and hot I bow my head, about to pray But ponder instead the news that day I saw people crying, I saw people dying... Yet in the midst of this I sit here, laughing I saw children starving, and some barely living... But still, I sit here, eating, drinking As I try to pray, I sit silently How can people act so violently? I begin to get upset I start to feel regret... I've neglected this crazyness God I pray for forgiveness! I'm losing myself, I'm being silly... I hear a voice saying, come now, think seriously Things are being done by others I'm sure. Something like this, it can't go on forever I break the silence, and begin to laugh and simply thank God for the food I have I hush my mind, It will all be okay I'll soon forget these thoughts anyway
