If you've never been deeply amused
You'll never be deeply frightened
If you've never been deeply confused
You'll never be deeply enlightened
Nothing is colder than the desert at night
Nothing hotter during the day
One drives me deeper into the ground
While the other wafts me away
I planted a tree on your birthday
And shook your ashes into the earth
Around it and sprinkled it
With water from a holy spring
One day with juicy oranges
You'll fill my mouth again
