Some trees are known to grow up straight,
and it seems they never stop
to point opposing to their weight
from their roots up to the top.
Most trees or other plants, however,
show influences on their way.
When growing up they often sever
their stems or branches as they may.
The routes of life are never straight,
not for plants, for animals or man.
Too many pending turns in wait
push sideways when they must or can.
Missions to the Mars and moon
revealed to us there is no water.
Until we travel further soon,
these two will do, the way is shorter.
We research their compact ground,
aspire to discover more,
rejoiced when we received a sound
and keep all data safe in store.
What do we learn by this endeavour?
Alien life ’s not there but here.
We notice neighbours, but we sever
the link to nature, fight and fear.
The net connects with thread-like fibre
where nothing was before.
A former space – and not the cyber –
was freer then much more.
The cyberspace now far and wide
without such formal beauty
of rules that spiders do abide
often negates all duty.
The internet is sometimes gross
in building bridges fast to cross.
