Then
thenthe man killed a bird
so that he could make
a quill from its long tail feather
then
the man chopped down a tree
so that he could make
a page of pristine paper
then
the man crushed a hundred beetles
so that he could make
a well of black ink
then
the man wrote a long letter
so that he could make
a case against the rape of nature
