I have my axe in hand,
I will chop down this tree
That is blocking my path,
Right in front of me.
This tree shouldn't be here,
It's destined for the chop.
I am stronger than I look,
I cannot, will not stop
Until this tree is felled
And removed from my sight.
Splinters fly as I swing the axe
With all my will and might.
This tree, its' roots are strong
But I am stronger still.
It's already been here way too long,
It's ill and wants to kill
The fertile earth it was
Accidentally planted in.
I cannot let this tree live on,
That would be a sin.
This tree will shatter,
Turn to firewood in my hands.
Disintegrated, gone forever,
I'll be free again to walk these lands.
