Dust, Sweep, and Clean
Dust, dust, dust
 Dust away the trash
 The bad,
 The broken,
 The torturous,
 And the sad
 
 Dust away the tiny pieces
 That prick and prod at your feet
 Dust away the memories
 That make you hide and retreat
 
 Dust away the sorrows
 That make your day unworthy
 Dust away the anger
 That makes you go crazy
 
 Sweep, sweep, sweep
 Sweep it off of the floor
 Don’t hide it anymore,
 Sweep it out from under the door
 
 Pick up the rubbish
 That’s been piling around for years
 Clean your life
 Of all past fears
 
 Watch the dirt scatter about
 With a flick of your wrist
 See how those tiny demons
 Writhe and twist
 
 Wash, wash, wash
 Clean your humble abode,
 Your life, your heart, your mind,
 Get rid of the load
 
 Clean the closets,
 And wash your dirty clothes,
 Pack away the boxes,
 Sleep a heavy, fresh dose
 
 Sit back and enjoy the beauty,
 Smell the cleared air,
 Revel in the comfort
 Now, isn’t it much easier to bear?
