Study suggests

Levels of microplastics
in human brains may be
rapidly rising, I mean *may be*
I've been warning about this
for literally days

The exponential rise
the tiny particles
   in the brain, liver and kidneys, more to the point 
   in my brain, my liver and my kidneys which, over
the years and across the decades, I have grown attached to

The human body
is widely contaminated
     with micro- and
     nanoplastics, and
there are levels of human exposure

The exponentially rising
  environmental presence
    the exponentially rising
      environmental presence, and
        the levels of human exposure

++++++++++++++++++++++++
I'm a plastic waste
breakdown+++++++++++++++

       And six times
       higher in brain
       samples from people
       who had dementia

This is what I have been saying
to myself, who else, while collapsing
on the kitchen floor, while
shapeshifting in the changing room
while sinking ever
deeper into the primordial bog

They've been found at the peak of Mount Everest
and in the deepest oceans
from the Sherwood Forest to the Gulf Stream borders
in the air that you breathe, but more to
the point in the air that I breathe

Neurological damage
      premature births
      breathe it all in
      those shards those flakes
a 50 per cent increase

my contaminated heart

             my contaminated liver

                     my terminated brain

++++++++++++++++++++++++
you're a plastic bag
meltdown+++++++++++++++
