THEY SAY by Emily Chen

You must stop deforestation 
“Nature is heaven on Earth” 
You are wrong 
When will you realise 
Everything has a price 
I believe 
The monumental advancement made in this lifetime is worth the cost 
You are wrong to assume that 
Lie and turn a blind eye to the reality

They are wrong 
“The sole meaning of life is to serve …
