Bad Apple
When we prefer
Quantity over quality
We poison ourselves
When we choose
Commerce over care
We poison ourselves
When we practice
Greed over gratitude
We poison ourselves
When we accept
‘shelf life’ over ‘life giving’
We poison ourselves
When we choose
Convenience over quality
We poison ourselves
When we prefer
The part instead of the whole
We poison ourselves
When we choose
Packages over plants
We poison ourselves
When we choose
A combo-meal over compassion
We poison ourselves
When we choose
Preoccupations over improvements
We poison ourselves
When we choose
Medicines over mind
We poison ourselves
When we look
But refuse to see
We poison ourselves.
