There is a place
I know there is
Not one not many
But all and every
You can go there
I can too
Where grass is green
And skies are blue
There’s no train
Chugging churning rocking the land
No people rushing
To beat the drops of sand
Instead people fall with them
Accepting the ride
And holding hands
Swimming with the tide
Smiling
as wind blows their hair
to
and
fro
They’ve all realized that there’s nowhere to go.
And so they
smile and laugh and play
They know that
this is their only day
Sometime soon
the sun will set
The crops will dry
Only one thing will be wet
Their hearts，their mouths, their blood, their gore
But not to worry
Sometime soon
it will be no more.
Be no more they say be no more
Than what you are, that is your chore
As a living mortal
You see the paradox
Your hands wave round
like a ticking clock
But
all batteries die
and all hearts stop to beat
So know, dear child,
you only have two feet
Do what you can in all that you do
But remember dear child what you do isn’t you.
