Dammed water.
Retained water.
Artificial nature. Unnatural lake. Unnatural forest.
Human Beings transform the Earth for their blessing.
And breaks its cycles.
And changes its times.
Past farmer people.
Present thirsty people.
Future,
Our Earth will not help us one more time.
Artificial consume. Unnatural fruits. Unnatural lifes.
Imprisoned water.
Unfree water.
