Allegory of the High and the Mighty

Can’t see the forest for the trees?
Well, it goes something like this:

The lowly saplings spring forth,
The noble old growth keeps

A watchful eye out in hopes
That nothing goes wrong,

Till the lords of the aerie
In one fell swoop

Bring everything down.

  1. Sometimes the lords crush a few of the innocent saplings, too.

  2. More than a few I'd say! But it looks like that old growth you're next to ain't gonna fall down right away seeing you're helping it keep steady!
