Selection from "What" by A. Marcus
You are comprised of 38 trillion cells,
84 minerals,
23 Elements,
and 8 gallons of water.
You have been built up from nothing by the spare parts of the Earth you have consumed, according to a set of instructions hidden in a double helix.
You are recycled butterflies, plants, rocks, streams, firewood, wolf fur, and shark teeth, broken down to their smallest parts and rebuilt into our planet’s most advanced living thing.
