Recycled Earth

Talking materials, nothing on this planet is of pristine origin. Our bodies are formed by recycled substance belonging to this planet.

 


 


H2O molecules


Rolling tears on Jesus' face


In my swimming pool


 


Gold and diamonds


Lace a pretty lady's neck


Born in neutron stars


 


Coca Cola drinks


Phosphate from old bones


Cornstarch sweetening


 


Garden vegetables


Grow on darkened bone dust


Good life for us


 


Chemical plants


Pollute our blue atmossphere


Plastic condom joy


 


Gray plastic bags


In unhappy slimey fish guts


Lucky day's catch


 


Dead organic oil


Oozes through Texas pipelines


SUV happiness


 


Palestinian farts


Gray walls of concrete and steel


Jerusalem inhalation


 


Israeli farts


Are smelled in Palestina


Global ecology

and then there was non-biodegradable styrofoam from people buying wine from companies who care about profits more than environment.

Quite insightful Franz,

Excellent write! No matter where you excavate you find yesterdays with the tomorrows!

Excellent work Franz! Everything is, was, and will be, as it filters through the continuum of never ending nothingness that is everything where there is no time definition...we were, we are, and we will be, fashioned just like Creator, who was is and ever shall be!

Hahahahaha...I see I have spurred a trend. Guess I will have to reinvent myself. Diversity and adaptabilty are the cornerstone of survivability over the long run...which is millions of years long, not a single humans lifetime.

I have an idea...let's cut to the chase.

What we are now, yesterday, tomorrow is irrelavant as we are essentially always molecules in motion. We are nothing more than cogs on evolutions wheel. Dust to dust.

Despite our egos, our righteousness...we are still nothing...and yet we desire to each be something, as if history were relavent.

Awesome contrasts and unique perspective.

"H2O molecules
Rolling tears on Jesus' face
In my swimming pool"

That's profound.
