ExHAIL
Jul 29, 2024
Our cells breathe too
O2 in and CO2 out.
Our hemoglobin playing
Musical chairs with our life.
When our blood fills
With carbon dioxide,
We must get it out—
Make room for the oxygen.
Our lungs are a vacuum,
Opened by our diaphragm.
The atmosphere always
Ready to give or take.
But we must exhale.
Let go of what we are holding.
Trusting the oxygen
Will be there for the next breath.
CO2 is not our enemy,
It’s our barter with the plants.
12 times each minute,
We choose to trust and exchange.
Hail to this constant!
We so often take for granted.
