What Lies Beneath

What's under the sky
The trees stand under the sky
The people walk under the trees

The cars cruise into the people
The tires hum under the cars

The road decays beneath the tires
The dirt sits under the worn road

The bugs sleep inside the dirt
The dinosaurs rest, concealed by the bugs

The ocean lies below the dinosaurs
The core is under the ocean
