I am a conduit
for shit
Quite literally
I process it
No coloured bins
for this or that
Just shoved in
and outward shat
A little like
our ancient trees
Recycled
by a few degrees
Degraded purposely
to Spoil
Not meant
to be extinctions oil
No second chance
for them or us
To coaly graves
we’re sunk and flushed
Filtered thin
back to the mire
No sheltered womb
or forming fire…
So where is
my own conduit
Through which I
too will pass as shit
The truth is
I’m disposable
Bury deep
and burn when full
