Dirt

From dirt I arise

Back to dirt I will go

Not a day too soon

Not a day too late

When the time comes

To seal my fate

Stab it with a black knife

Seal that coffin shut

Set it on fire

Throw the ashes in the Nile

In the Ganges 

Sprinkle on top of Mr. Everest

Then after a thousand years or so
As nature takes its course

I will be whole again

To arise from the dirt

Be me again

Dirt. That's us.
