• “Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.“
    -Matthew 5:13


    Bland Salt

    This world as we know it is bland.
    It is not the precious salt we once knew.

    How did this happen? I do not know.
    I do not even want to know how.

    Did we cause it?
    Did we soak it up?
    From the ocean or the dirt?
    Were we so selfish that we took it ourselves
    When we already had our own?

    Though we wasted ours too.
    Did we waste it?
    Or was it always meant to become this?

    It does not matter anyhow.
    It’s too late.
    And I do not care either.
    The world is a waste.

    Because what’s the point of tasteless salt?
    It is useless even for nothing.
