Forms of Decay

By  Magda Holden 2022 - 2024

Decomposing matter is mulched together to form a new life

I see in it biological cells that are starting to form 

a beautiful and a vital cycle of life

It seems collapsing diminishing rotting but in nature nothing is lost

The substance is only changing from the complex to the simpler one

Invisible to the naked eye

microorganisms are extracting the essence 

vital building blocks that form a new life

This is harmony and order of the world

that helps me understand

life after life

and the consubstantial God
