Dialog on Survival

By Joan E. Gordon

5G? Ah, me!
I need my tree.
It cannot be. 

But why? I ask.
It blocks the task.

I choose a world tree'd;
not increased speed.
Short-sighted old creed.

But health?
Best think wealth.

For whom?  It's planetary doom.
With 5G, we'll colonize the moon.

Can there be trees on the moon?
