Man Plan

The man with the plan,

came across the land,

to exploit it to its extent.

For the land to the man,

was part of the plan,

he felt was heaven sent.

He cut and he carved,

shaped to his design.

Took all he wanted,

all that he could find.

But what he left was barren,

and leached a foul path.

The man with the plan,

didn't account what he hath.

Took those millions made,

to build castles in the sky.

Riches upon riches meant,

wielding power by-and-by.

There was no plan,

to rejuvenate the land.

The man with the plan,

was no longer at hand.

Be careful what you wish for,

if you're lucky and you win.

Taking more than you can stomach,

may do us all in.
