TOPIC #24 Eating Dirt

Eating Dirt

I ate some dirt the other day

And it...did…not…taste…very…good.

I should have listened to my Mom

Like I know I always should.

Pause

My brother said it would be very tasty,

And he said I would be very glad,

And that when I swallowed it all,

He would surely never…ever…tell Dad.

Pause

So…I scooped up some up and shoved it down.

It stopped on its way…sure made me frown.

My mouth was still full of DIRT GRIT and DIRT GRIME,

So I’ll make sure I have water

Pause

When I eat...dirt…next…time.
