For The Sake Of A Tree

How many times do you walk past this tree and say:
I have to do something with this someday.

When is someday?
With all the cracks in the ceilings and walls, how on earth would you ever know if your foundation was moving?
The cost of cutting down this beast has never been more expensive but it will never be cheaper than today.
How did this happen?
[Please tell me a little kid traded his family cow for some beans and a giant lives in the top of it.]
That's the only logical explanation.
