Roundup in the corn flakes
Roundup in the bread
Roundup in the pasta
Roundup in our heads.
Endocrine disruptors-
we don’t know who we are,
but we strive to feed the world
at Monsanto’s tireless side.
And in environmental testing,
male frogs like male frogs-
we’re feminizing boys
and they won’t know who they are.
If you can tell a story in 55 words, it's time to participate in the Friday Flash 55 event hosted by the G-Man. Post it then click it to meet the man and some other talented folks as well.
Actually, I cheated. This isn't fiction. I wish it were.

I was so sick last weekend and kept thinking..ok, what the hell did I eat and what was in it that made me so sick...food for thought! :D
You sure pack a lot into those 55 - love the way your brain works! :)
It is sad that it's true. Seems nothing is safe anymore...if it ever was...
Isn't this situation unbelieveable?! I don't know how these corporations are being allowed to continue poisoning our food supply. I guess not enough of us have gotten the message...so thank you for this powerful science non-fiction 55!
That was great. Packed a strong punch. I love the image of the male frogs and the feminized boys. Ah, Monsanto--I thought back in the day it was a fictional firm! Doesn't it sound like something made up? Thanks for posting your poem--I guess we all wish it were fiction, too!
We fictionalize to make the truth a more powerful warning.
Greetings, Happy Sunday! Blessings…
Friendship Awards, Enjoy!
Thanks for the support, You Rock!
