our earthbound minds are the death of us


see so many locked in their animal understanding

trying to drag everyone else down with them


into a feral pit of imaginary blind lust and hunger

oh I've a ways to go before I can do without


this ravening insanity of flesh

a ways to go before before I can even


come close to emulating the Perfect Man who freed us from this


and waits in infinite patience for us

to awaken to this fact


who knows when by an earthly measure?

in the heavens it's always just about to happen


and so hard to stay strong until when that time

here on earth finally happens...
