To Understand

Don't tell me a holy man never gets rob
or things inside his house ever gets lost.
Don't tell me a rich man's drain never clogs
or filth never sticks to its sides.
Does he wait until he sees a gun at his face
before he installs an alarm in the house?
Does he wait until the plumbing overworks
and the pipes bursts
before he sets them straight?
