Take dat dirt - if yuh goes out dat door de firs' one in de mawnin' see, well dey will take dat dirt an' sprinkle it in front of de do' an' yuh walks ovah it. An' yuh walks outa de home an' yuh fo'git home. Dere is no mo' home fo' yuh, becuz dat dirt - it's jis' like yore mind is murdered, it's gone. An' of co'se, once yore mind is gone yuh's done.
