Inhale
Carry only-God -knows-what
Kinds of toxins
Deep into the center of being
Inhale
Exhale
Inhale
We are supposed to be
The poster girls
For good, glowing health
Inhale
Exhale
Inhale
Deal with the chemical headaches
The skin rashes
Ignore the way the room spins
Inhale
Exhale
Inhale
The health of a few sacrificed
For the health
Of many who just don't care
Inhale
Exhale
Inhale
Until the world turns black
Author notes
A personal protest. We were dealing with illness in a contained area last week - it spread like wildfire. So we, even thoug it is not our job and we are not paid for it, spent hours deep-sanitising the ship, without the benefit of proper safety equipment. I fainted. twice.
