If a Tree Falls -
IF A TREE FALLS. . . . . .
If a tree falls in the forest
And no one hears it
How do I know it fell?
If I fall in the forest
Do the trees hear me?
If they don’t, how do I know I fell?
Because of my grazed knees.
But hey,
If the whole forest falls on me,
No one will hear -
Not me, not the trees:
So maybe no one fell at all.
