Conditioned Consumption

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.
