WORD : the world is in decay

Sent: 11/6/2003 1:20 AM


the world is in decay
vultures hyenas scavengers
have broken apart her skin
are sucking the blood from her veins
her atmosphere shredded
her resources starved

the world is dead
she would have kicked us off by now
if she could
if she even would
so the world is dead

the world is in decay
beetles ants hives
devour history’s excretion of her
simple food their only vice
their lives inside outside
their lives apart

the world is dead
they don't even know she's there
she's there
she's their mother
yet the world is dead

the world is in decay
fungi bacteria microorganisms
= you me us
are completing her decay
releasing new elements
you me us
breathing life into the world
releasing truth that cannot be broken down
you me us
unlock those things dead
beginning a new life chain
you me us

thus

the world is alive
we give her new life
she needs it
she deserves it
we give the new world a say

So thank God for today’s
decay.
