Why is it that
Everyone is so
Romantic about
Autumn, and the
Changing of the
Seasons? I just
Don’t understand;
I don’t get the
Reasons. Like,
Who cares that
The leaves don’t
Stay green? We
Shouldn’t gawk
As they fall to
Disease. I just
Think we should
Let them die in
Peace, and not
Write so beautifully
About this tragedy.
