A Poem
To the Editor:
Ode to the Mendocino Redwood Company
You have the chance, MRC
to close the GAP between you and we
You'll get the support of our communities
if you spare the big, old growth trees
And stop the clear-cuts, if you please
And don't poison our fish or progenies
Don't squint down at the bottom line
Look for a sustainable design
Raise your sights to the canopy
'cause that's where our future will be
it may cost more to log this way
but think of the lawyers you won't have to pay
and you won't need a costly PR ad
to say what you're doing isn't so bad
Listen to us, Mr. Sandy Dean
Does it take a "Gypsy" to know what I mean?
