Katherine Hyslop Nourish Us

Alveoli drift, or wiggle,

Nourish body systems. Signal.

“Cease sugar shock” cry out loud.

(Give muscles strength & clout).

We stand. Or stare.

Our glands exude;

Intent dissolve, 

Meet bodies’ needs.

Ingest vitamins, minerals,

Gustatory delights!

(“I’ll just go pop”)- funerals;

Await digestive might. 

Crunch or munch. Salivate.

Glance o’er rainbow fruits.

A stepping-dance, we wait,

And pay. Chatter, natter. Loot.

Cells in respiration,

Whilst vibrant voices sell.

Plan-out, we all afford

Social interaction. Food.

Our Body’s not a screen.

Will food swipe-right?

Our bodies move in unison;

At Source, the Pack is tight.
