there is a place i want to see which no man yet has seen a city built around a tree where it has always been where animals feed off the fruits and no man's dared to step his boots where flirting sun in sky just smiles and preens
a city built around a tree which no man yet has seen? how could a city none could see be built and always been? who built it if it wasn't man? could animals, and if they can would they also build zoos for you and me?
