Unbeaten Paths
A road that strays
from beaten path
forest of trees
a sea of grass
down a side road
top of a pass
oh wilderness
how long will it last
the mining of coal
the oil and gas
the water scant
as land is fracked
tear up the earth
souls left aghast
hope there remain
unbeaten paths.

Yes, a real lyrical gem.
