Conditioned Consumption

Almost everyday we hear about how some processed, refined, 
pesticide-ridden or over-cooked food has been found to be 
carcinogenic. Yet people will rarely look at or question 
their own diet, what they eat and how it's prepared. 
Despite our lengthy time on earth it has been a relatively 
short time in the scheme of things that humankind has 
harnessed fire and used it for cooking, as well as begun to
 refrigerate, irradiate, and store our food in plastic and 
glass containers and packaging. We consume a diet of 
garbage and then pay the price for it. Eat lesser, eat 
better, eat rawer, eat organic.

conditioned consumption without question
so far removed from nature's laws
it seems we've lost direction
we indulge ourselves with poisons
desecrate ourselves with toxins
and laugh in the face of death for the sake of convenience
we reject the essentials just consume what we like
refined processed contaminants which we've been fed all our
 lives
excessive packaging waste prepackaged for land fill
we pollute our bodies we destroy the earth
contamination of a sacred temple
we defile ourselves and we wonder why
we are they way we are the way we are
crash course for self destruction
we remove all traces of nutrients that protect us from 
disease
