In our cars
On our buses
On oil-drenched roads
In our maze of concrete walls
We feel safe
Because we are safe now
We worry about tomorrow
Or yesterday
The present is gone
Only mindless action remains
In our freezers
On our plastic plates
Our dead food sits
We don’t have to chase our food
So we take what comes easiest
The most expensive factories
Were built to produce
The cheapest food
Colorless
Lifeless
Thoughtless
Gone are the gardens that nourished us
Within our concrete walls
But our minds are gone too
So our stomachs grow
Disease is our new enemy
Because we like our safe life.
