Picture This

A Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)

The human body is actually kinda funky!

Picture This

Your body contains eight hundred

Trillion trillion Carbon atoms.

And that’s not just

Hyperbolic hype!

What is even more astounding is…

That one in eight of those carbon atoms

Recently was expelled as pollution

From a smokestack or exhaust pipe!

(adapted from the book “YOUR ATOMIC SELF” by Curt Stager)
