theoretically speaking

Just getting bak into the habit of writing regularly

How many spiders would it take

to tether down a weather balloon?

How many weather balloons would it take

to uproot a redwood tree?

And how many

just how many redwood trees would it take

to return the earth to what it once was

all those millennia ago?

When did concrete slabs and smoke stacks replace the

elegance of vines crawling across the forest floor?

When did the intricate lace of a spider’s web become

distasteful in the homes of others?

When did humans stop looking at the moon and

focus on weather balloons drifting in the sky

to alert them of fair skies and warm but

pleasant afternoons?

[Yes]

A well-written, questioning piece. I find it comforting that someone besides me recognizes the fact that Earth was a whole different world all those years ago.
