PROMPT: Couldn’t Live Without
Digestible non-toxic protein, digestible non-toxic fats, and digestible non-toxic carbohydrates.
Also, water and air, but they are non-commoditized (to a large extent, anyhow.)
Also, certain vitamins and minerals, but they would be subsumed in a good mix of the aforementioned three.

Condemned [Free Verse]
Condemnation placard
Stapled to the church door
With the commanding tone
Of Luther’s notice.
The Condemned has stately bones
But its skin and viscera
Are in shambles.
Sun pierces stained glass,
Bathing dirty surfaces
With bright color,
But the dust and rat shit
Remain to create a
Miasma within.
One day a wrecking ball
Will make good on the
Condemnation.
