Inspired by the humble cloud.
Water as pure as the first drop of rain.
Northumbrian spring water
Vaporised to remove impurities,
Then condensed back to … water.
With mineral electrolytes added
Potassium, calcium and magnesium.
Replicating the water cycle.
In a bottle of Polyethylene Terephthalate,
Light and strong,
Perfect for backpacking,
Made from 30% of plants
But in half a millennium, just maybe
Its nurdles will have followed
The hydrological journey to the sea.
It’s Jennifer Aniston’s hydrating hiking mate
Heading up the canyon with her beloved dog;
It’s her companion in a red-carpet entrance,
and her trusted ally, taking one last sip backstage,
before a late-night show.
Smart is what smart does.
That clean, crisp taste
Drunk by selfish balloons
Not smart enough to consider
Taking home and recycling the bottle.
More Coca-Cola plastic littering the earth.
As smart is what smart is.
