The Dirt

The Earth will inherit the meek.
It’s not like they’re going to Mars.
It’s not like brash and arrogant
Tycoons survive here without them.

Assuming they survive, the meek,
They’ll continue on being meek
Right here, and when or if they fail
To carry on, Earth will carry

Their remains on for them, calmly
As all the other tragedies
Earth carries encoded in dirt.
Earth always inherits the dirt.
