Open Clarus

The Clarus is land that has been clear-cut by the humans' machinery. What they left behind was disregarded stumps and forgotten imprints of vehicle tires. It spreads for miles, as far as the untrained eye can see. Some may call it depressing - witnessing what had once been a thriving forest reduced to insignificant trunks that no longer serve a purpose on this earth. They truly are a waste of space. But others may only say it's their fate. What a cruel fate, indeed. Replacing the forest is parched and half-dead grass, and if one were to simply walk upon it, they would hear the grass's pathetic attempt at life as it crackled beneath their weight. You can only hope the grass is greener on the other side.
