My loving Son
Become a dirt I say again,
Become a dirt
Become only a dirt
Though stepped on
Crushed
Soaked in water
Dried in sunlight
Though ground and thrown away,
Be ground and thrown away without a word
Become a dirt
Though dug by a hoe
Stabbed by a shovel
Ground by a plough
Pierced ad broken by a rake,
Be patient and endure all things
Become a dirt
Though dug by a weeding hoe
Dug by a shovel
Though grains are shown
And trees are planted,
Grown the trees without a word
Become a dirt
Though the cow steps on you
The dog steps on you
The pig steps on you
The birds step on you
Though humans step on you,
Be patient and endure all things
Become a dirt
Though animals defecate on you
Though the birds and insects defecate their filth on you,
Be patient and accept without a word
Become a dirt
Though animals dig a hole People dig a hole
Snakes dig a hole
Though mice may dig a hole in you,
Do not voice your pain and quietly be overcome
Become a dirt
The billions of trees thrust their roots into you
Thousands of plants drive their roots into you
Though humans may dig a well in you
And pump you dry,
Be wordless throughout all this
Become a dirt
The poison all animals of the world give out
The poison all humans give out
The poisons all factories and cars give out,
After having wordlessly received and swallowed then all,
Give out only good vegetables and fruits
To serve all man and living nature
Become a dirt
