Chemolithoautotrophs

Physicochemical occurrences
indicate spiritual phenomena
like convexity does concavity.

I thought if I understood chemistry
then I'd understand God.

The chemistry, ecology
of light-choked caves,
dark places,
helps understand
dark places I frequent.

Chemo- not a cure for my cancer
in 30 more years,
chemical.

Living on this litho-
rock, revolving in Nothingness around hot gas.

Auto-
(not our cars, fuck our cars)
oneself.

Troph-, like our feeding troughs
also feeding on us (without our cars & guns),
nutritive.

Chemolithoautotrophs
are just so damn cool.
Some only live in sulfuric-acid caves
formed by God’s sulfidic rage.
They eat up the stuff
no one else wants
in toxic rock heaps
inorganic elements & pollution
that we dump into rivers or
that exists geologically.

Feed me your orphan debris,
your darkness
or I'll discover some
that was already here.
