Saw Dust : Ashes Of A Tree
Elemental Ode

Motes of sawdust floating through a beam from the sun.
Inhaled into my lungs.
Dropped on the floor it's a mess,
But can soak up liquids leaving no evidence.
Might cause breathing woes. Working hard? Helps it show.
Sawdust can be used for vengeance.
Throw a full piece of chalk, knock it loose from their fans.
A cloud erupts in their eyes.
They cry.
Swearing they are blind.
Put on the floors of whore houses.
A preventive for slipping in liquids.
There are more practical uses.
Compost and weed reducing.
Feed plants or make paths.
A positive aftermath.
Many ways to recycle.
Even warmth for your animals.
Oh sweet sawdust I breath.
You can be so many things.
