we lived our lives
in bubble wrap
and Tupperware
and cling film
and sandwich bags;
inside air conditioned
pressurised cabins
behind UV protected
double glazed windows;
in upright reclinable seats
behind airbags
wearing safety belts.
We were comfortable
we were overweight
we were medicated
we were unhealthy.
in the end we all died
all the same.

Can't argue with that JM. Nicely put. I'm off to climb a tree.
