he said it was the bridge
so we built it
but we could never cross to the other side
only he did

his grass was certainly greener
nothing could get under it
to the cool dark earth
except for him
he always found a way

now there was no way to visit
not even a bridge
could be built to span
this distance

no book could be read or written
to make us understand
the distance
It was too great
no bridge to be built
no grass could grow greener
this section of earth lies undisturbed
