SALMON (ELLA)

Genetically altered salmon(bigger,better,not necessarily cheaper!
will be released into your digestion soon
to join vaccinated cows,genetically engineered goats
Frankenstein crops of soy,corn and cotton.
DO NOT WORRY!They are unlabeled
just as in oils and processed foods
Natural hybrids have now moved to square eggs,
straight bananas,cows that don't produce methane in their flatulence
and pigs whose manure is less polluting..
RELAX! You will not notice the difference!
You can't breed a cow with a starfish-but you can mutate genes
and make mutations that are irreversible.
Pollen of genetically altered crops crosses borders
like Chenobyl radiation.Unintended consequences
produce untended food sources.Mad Cow's Disease,
listeria,salmonella.Recall food recalls?Not all of them factory meat!
Eat what you grow-even then,chlorine and fluorides added to water supplies
change chemistry and results.Big Mac.Big Business.Big Pandemics
Do not worry.There is nothing you can do about it.
We will go where the wild salmon go..
Leap up waterfalls/defy gravity.Get caught and released
from a wild (undammed)river.In our dreams...
