Have You Ever Stood In A Clear Cut?


Have you ever stood in a clear cut?  A place devoid of old growth? It is a disaster. A wreckage. It is dry and meaningless. The cycle is broken and what scant debris left is drifting away homeless.

Having stood in clear cuts, or near them, I have often sought words to describe what I am seeing and feeling. Like any mother and father, I suppose we expect the Mother Earth or almighty Nature to be ever-enduring and undaunted. She, though with great sorrow and agony, might endure Her rape and violation, but the question is, can we?
