POEM: Mine Blowin’

My mind is blown every time I meditate on the fact that the stuff our bodies are composed of, molecules, are so infinitesimally small that if the molecules contained in a single breath were spread evenly across the planet, then a molecule from that breath would be inspired by the breath of every other person on the planet. Likewise, every breath we take would contain molecules from every breath from every person who ever lived. Similarly, every bite of food we take would contain molecules from the food eaten by every other person.

Literally, what is mine is yours and what is yours is mine.

Mine Blowin’

Every breath
Every fart
Every apple
Every shit
Given
Every atom
Every eve
Scattered too
Fore wins
Apart becoming
The hole
Every breath in every fart
Every fart in every breath
Every apple in every shit
Every shit in every apple
Every atom in every eve
Every eve in every atom
Every fecund creation
Awe that is yores
Mine blowin’
