Creatures Fantastic

under the dirt, under the grass live creatures fantastic we never see just as on the ocean bottom glide fish we cannot imagine to think that in our gut are all sorts of bacterium striving for dominance and we oblivious, place bets on ballgames conniving to hide what we've already consumed

Sounds awful what is already in our tummies, but get ready for the day when flying ants, grass ,hoppers, worms, caterpillars, snails, are part of our diet, humanity will have no choice as cows fart, too much and animals take humans oxygen and add to pollution by assisting breathing out carbon dioxide and finally they will be too expensive to breed and feed, i Know its only grass, but maybe we will need it more. Clever thoughts in this your free verse write Gershon. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Is this the poetry bug rather than the muse?

Some of those creatures are pretty scary looking too. I avoid the microscope whenever I can, to avoid nightmares. Well worded Gershon.

This is very true--tiny creatures moving huge grains of sand to build their homes. They would appreciate being in your poem. I try to respect all creatures except spiders. They make me scream and run :)

And then their are the microscopic organisms that we do not see. Just amazing all God has created...

Quite true Gershon. Under the dirt and in the gut there are innumerable living organisms which are hidden from our view like the deep underwater organisms of the ocean.
