Wishes

Cashing bloated checks every day drawn from the bank of the earth, I am resposible for thousands of deaths.

Compost me.

When payment comes due and the ecology collections come collecting please do not bury me so boxed and so deep.

I owe. Compost me.

Turn me back to the givers from whom I have taken. I may end up a tree branch riding down a roiling river or a gnat, in your face.

I may stink for a while, best to drop me away from people. Compost me.

That I may not rob the earth. Compost me.
