Filthy Clean

people become 'dirty'
in your so-called hands
but they feel more like claws to me

people become 'filthy'
with the dust of the past
but it looks more like snow to me

people change
as the seasons melt into winter
and all of the winds change course

people like you
don't know the answer
for you don't know how to wash
anything at all

because when people get 'dirty'
and 'filthy'
you throw them away
instead of making them clean
