Thought it might be good to rest your minds from the pursuits of U2...
A poor man has it,
A rich man needs it.
If you eat it, you will die.
If you wear it, you will freeze.
What is it?
------------------------------------
It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannont be smelt.
It lies behind stars and unders hills,
And empty holes it fills.
It comes first and follows after,
Ends life, Kills laughter.
------------------------------------
Voiceless it cries,
Wingless flutters,
Toothless bites,
Mouthless mutters.
------------------------------------
WHat has roots as nobody sees,
Is taller than trees,
Up, up it goes,
And yet never grows?
------------------------------------
This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees and flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays King, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.
A poor man has it,
