They’ve made sunshine artificial
cellophane contains rainforest mist
we tread never ending stairway
all that’s living sorely missed
*
music tuned on rounds of plastic
nature sneers in futility baulks
nothing here really matters
our food source comes fresh from a box
*
green is just another color
nothing in the dirt is real
silk are all the flowers blooming
all that swims comes from Mercury’s reel
*
break a pack it will cool you
smash these gels for your feet
what you hold is meant to fool you
supplement the real de-feat
*
This is a rant that I wrote after eating pesticide laden veggies from Mexico. The Central Valley in California is more than capable of growing the crops for the nation and yet it is often short-changed by big business and politics in Northern and Southern California. I loved reading this morning (on the box) that my clementines are sprayed with wax or better yet resin. Well they have to be they are shipped from Morocco.
This article California’s Central Valley is about the volume of fresh produce, dairy and meat coming from the under represented but productive area in California..
