There is beauty in working with hands That I can never describe in words Yet here I give it a try, before my land goes dry Everyday I sow seeds & plant plants Without knowing what they'll look like In years to come, when there's no music to hum Some say it's boring farm work Under hot sun & cold rain Yet I keep doing it over & over For I know why I'm growing As it's the only way to a world Free of tyranny, depression & eternal suffering So I'll keep growing till my land goes dry For I need to feed the last man on earth Give him hope & few seeds to grow.

THE LAST MAN ON EARTH
There is beauty in working with hands That I can never describe in words Yet here I give it a try, before my land goes dry Everyday I sow seeds & plant plants Without knowing what they'll look like In years to come, when there's no music to hum Some say it's boring farm work Under hot sun & cold rain Yet I keep doing it over & over For I know why I'm growing As it's the only way to a world Free of tyranny, depression & eternal suffering So I'll keep growing till my land goes dry For I need to feed the last man on earth Give him hope & few seeds to grow.
From the time when I was working in a permaculture farm
