Nutritious Baby Food --
An Earthy Truth
"On dying, a vast majority of humans go a progress through the anuses of earthworms."
"The Family Tree of Evolution"
Day-care Center Lesson 1
* * *
Yet countless babies quick are ziplocked ere they slow decay
till in the freezer all are stacked and safely stowed away,
and whether in a fricassee, French soup, or fine soufflé --
the beef dethawed is tender sweet at each worm's huge buffet.
* * *
a dedication of Respect
for
the Reality of the biosphere
beyond all Rational doubt
nicely balanced
a revolving helios rhyme menippean satire on
the endless evidence in favor of the existence of the human "soul"
everywhere present in fictions --
as well as in fairy tales
february, 2023 -- the popular ideology of natalism,
yet still pro-food
for worms
