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.
