Welcome to Ethical SuperMegamart
buy a jar of organic Conscience-Ease
bring your own cotton bag
much easier for dump pickers to use
request a knobbly carrot
love its ugly
but purchase some eco-friendly skin care
so you yourself don’t get craggy
at the counter
offset your food miles with
money!
today there’s a special offer on
moral superiority!
no added chemicals
except those that make up every single—
no nasties, we mean, of course
don’t be so cynical!
no antibiotics in the meat or veg, because…
superbugs and… vaccines?
oh, don’t even go there
it’s scientifically proven
to do what it says
that’s good, you’ve assuaged
my confirmation bias
ahhh
all these ethical choices
sold by the pound
worry alleviation
in one convenient location
Today’s GloPoWriMo prompt was to write a georgic in honour of Earth Day. Your Georgic could be a simple set of instructions on how to grow or care for something, but it could also incorporate larger themes as to how land should be used (or not used), or for what purposes.
