Money well spent

We don't need the grasses,

the grains that being grown,

or the plants, scrubs and trees,

that are seen in the surrounding. 

If there's a profit to be made,

even in distant unreachable places,

for a few weeks or month of the year,

everything will be cleared from the ground. 

Either building permanent construction,

or erecting some temporary structures, 

covering the boundaries with fences , 

preventing natural growth or any misadventures. 

For, even in the barren lands,

lies a value to be generated, 

filling the pockets, enriching owners,

willing to take risks, for the dividends. 

Why do we need poor neighbors,

those engaged in their daily livings,

when more land would be obtained,

to expand business as per demands? 

So, we don't need any plantations,

the ground below, matters more,

and we will not stop our quest until,

us rich men could proclaim... 

Money is well spent.
