There Are Those Who Love To Get Dirty | A poem by Gary Snyder, 1970-84
Jean Berko Gleason, Yesterday he _ , 1958
There are those who love to get dirty
and fix things
They drink coffee at dawn,
beer after work,
And those who stay clean,
just appreciate things,
At breakfast they have milk
and juice at night.
There are those who do both,
they drink tea.
