Salt once more valuable than gold.

Now limited for blood pressure.

Salt for savory.

And for sweet.

I’d say he’s worth his salt.

Lewis and Clark boiling ocean for salt to preserve fish.

Salt for hydration.

Salt for dehydration.

To clean cast iron.

Molten salt.

Electric salt.

Metal salt.

Cell salts from the ash of burned bodies.

Alkaline salts of the burned lemon.

Precipitation and distillation

all that’s left is salt.

The relationship with water.

At one but water transcends

and evaporates leaving it’s partner.

The two combine to increase conductivity.

But the water shall return

just as it does in the seasonal floods of dried salt beds of desert.

Sweat with it’s salt.

Conductive of electricity.

Give me the heat so we can sweat as rain drips down the windows.

Perhaps the rain is the sweat of god?
