Dust

This body is made of dust,
But it's in its nature,
That it fears dust.

Why ? See the soldier,
He goes to dust,
never fears to go to dust,
fights bravely for his dust.

Yet, his dust,
is worshiped like dust,
by common dust.

If this body could understand
The eternal puzzle of dust --
man comes from dust, goes to dust,
But the one who does a noble deed,
lives in the memory of the dust,
Others simply get eaten way in the dust.
