yeah, i know, my understanding of physiology sucks. i care little about that.
from dirt to dirt
every part of our body comes from the life around us
grown by food and air and water
that shapes us into being.
even the very things that make our soul
– memories that tangle with experience
and
dreams and fears and
love
– are created and held in being
by a million neural pathways
and by brain cells made by
food and air and water
and when we are gone
they will be too
back to the earth
to make another
we will not be
but we will be
forever.
