Food that I cook and eat
even while sunburning their skins
humans and all other mammals
are unable to take in enough radiant energy
to keep them alive.
to circumvent mammals attempting futilely so to do
nature has invented
the green vegetation on the dry lands,
and the algae in the waters around the Earth.
the vegatation and the algae
impound the Sun's radiation by photosynthesis
converting the radiation
into orderly molecules,
which constitute biological life's
prime energy harvest.
