Rusty’s Comminutor

Rusty runs the comminutor,
A kid who grew up with no tutor.

Thrilled with the scatological:
“God uses it ALL - that’s all too logical!”

Chuckle and loosen your belt buckle,
He’s wealthier now than your rich uncle.

Between errands and jobs - his first: 
The solid waste must be dispersed.

“Hey Rusty,” his radio cracks,
“You’re needed up front: check the grate racks.”

From the seat of his stool he springs,
Tools to loosen the clog he brings.

It’s a steady job the world over; paid
Regular pay plus overtime, it’s made

Rusty realize the importance 
Of work done well - an inheritance

To partake in the noble and great:
“Ora et labora” from eight until eight.

It’s true he’s not the most learned,
But believes to be the most blessed.

Working for the Lord’s glory; next the boss;
He’s never doubted who’s carried the bigger Cross.
