Welcome to the Anthropocene (You are Food)

You are neither scourge nor savior. You are a point on the continuum. What you eat, you are. You are food. And how sacred is that? Little sister to Second Nature.

This sacred body
doesn’t she make you feel so lovely?
Part of creation
doesn’t it make you feel so godly?
You’re inspiration
all that is true
Don’t be wary of this bacteria
there is a plan for you

Welcome to the Anthropocene it’s not a dream
you are growing roots and the rising tide
everything inside is all you are
(you are you are you are…)

A life of indifference
living with the consequence
It’s hardly making sense
when it’s all a means to your end

Mother still feeds her young
though they haven’t learned to satiate their tongue
Rise with the morning sun
But where will you lay down?

Welcome to the Anthropocene
it’s not a dream you are
memories of your progeny

Welcome to the bitter end
isn’t it so sweet? Become
everything you put inside
everything you eat

You are food (you are you are you are…)

This sacred body
doesn’t she make you feel so lovely?
You are creation
doesn’t it make you feel so godly?

You are creation (you are you are you are you are)
you are creation (you are you are you are you are)

So true, Tom. Like how, after I eat too much Middle Eastern food, I falafel.

They say "you are what you eat." I find this to be true because as soon as I bought some ready-to-eat apricots, I was ready to eat apricots. My favourite thing about these ready-to-eat apricots is that they were in a resealable bag, because sometimes you aren't ready-to-eat apricots enough. Maybe next time you'll buy some ready-to-eat apricots.
