Gardens in my mind never need water
Castles in the air never have a wet basement
Well made buildings are fractal -- equally intelligent design at every level of detail.
Bright sparks remind others that they too can dance
What I am looking for is looking for me too!

Compost/decomposition/recycle/aerobic just sounds like the circle of life and feels more uplifting.
To me they are alomost the same thing, I might used the word rotten, to make more message more emotional and less monotone.
If something is naturally more grizzly I might try to tone it down and call it composting. (I composted one of the goats that died).

I pile yard and kitchen stuff up in big mounds and then two years later, I peel the crap off the top and there's beautiful humus underneath. Sometimes it stinks and attracts flies. I wouldn't be surprised if someone thought I was doing it wrong and that my piles were rotting. But the humus seems right at the end even if it takes two years instead of eight weeks.
