Airy

Earth’s greatest asset, airy freedom

Trapped in lungs, feeds angel and demon

Fighting over thought and speech

Precious tools that extend the mind’s reach

Right or wrong

Air doesn’t linger long

It’s molecules, earth’s crown jewel

Given to us without a duel

Even the hardiest of minds

Greedily suck, forgetting headwinds

Universal air, the ultimate Trojan horse

Lives even in a hearse

Air’s smothering embrace

Keep’s earth an evergreen birthplace

It grants freedom from death

Can’t we thank it in every breath?
