Gas- Squiddy Geiger - March 25, 2012
Odourless, colourless, all around us
Gas sustains us, or smothers us
Or immolates us, or aids us
Or on windy days pushes us
Or energizes us
It entertains us, it delights us
Or for certain pranksters, offends us
The wrong gas poisons us
But always gas is around us
The absence of gas kills us
