Foundations She does it to herself, digs this same hole Why do we build nests in things that aren't trees? Sees a plot of land, that looks fertile and clean Why do we collect fragments pretending they make a whole? Here she begins to dig, curious about what she can find Why do we lay foundations on sand by the sea? She builds a nice nest is sturdy and strong Why do we trust limbs that are still green and aren't long She's got all the supplies to make a good home What does she think this is a tree when its nothing but a stone? She sees the storm and has the tools to provide Where is the tree strong enough to stay by her side? She knew this was not a tree when she dug this hole Why do we build nests in things that aren't trees?
