DIRT

You only need light

To see in the dark

Perform a kind deed

To leave your mark

But you need, a lot of dirt

To dig a hole

 

You only need food

When you are hungry

Ask for advice

When in a quandary

But you needn’t, throw any dirt

To reach your goal

 

You only need water

When you are thirsty

Put away your ego

To have some modesty

But you must, wash away your dirt

For your sins, to annul

 

You don’t need to worry

About life after death

Don’t rush to the end

Stop, take a breath

Because, you mustn’t have, any dirt

To save your soul
