In "Song of Myself", these lines show a realistic view of death. The first line shows the speaker's physical return to the earth (dirt) to become part of nature (grass). The second line implies that after death, one can be found in the mundane, earthly place under boot - soles, emphasizing a natural, unromanticized view of death as a return to the physical world.
