Eco Death

we breathe the air that they exude  tough love, she says, you mustn’t pry the chamber door, you little prude from body to burner and smoke to sky as friendly as the black smokes rise she taps her tears with bated breath smokestacks hinting at demise of one’s quite untimely death. the bell of death tolls by the tower they bicker and squabble for earth or fire upon the casket lays widow a flower speak only kind though life turns to liar you choose your fate among the acid though lie you must contained in wood browning veins turn passage placid if path of death the choice he could drain blood and pump the body “clean” plasticize and look, she’s real or rather she should not be seen sealed tight in urn to all conceal but better yet to shroud and bury no steel nor acid nor smoke to raise breathe in return to earth her glory and let the earth sing thrice to praise

Rewild the land with the corpses of your loved ones today!

But seriously, just so everyone knows natural burials are a thing in all 50 states of the US. Instead of using incredibly toxic chemicals, concrete, and steel to slow the decomposition of your body you can encourage it by being buried in biodegradable materials like bamboo cloth. 2.5 million people die in the united states every year which uses 5.3 MILLION gallons of (cancer causing) embalming fluid, 100 TONS of steel, 1,600,000 TONS of concrete, and enough trees to cover the span of New Jersey.

Think about natural burials. Shallow graves with thin biodegradable wrappings. Instead of a vault and embalming fluid encasing us slowing the decaying process we can instead give everything back to the earth and provide nutrients to trees and other vegetation planted on top of us.

Seriously, we need to make an ecological political stand surrounding death. Make forests from the deceased!
