paradise

isn't in your mind


it is realized

right here in the world


through suffering

and love and compassion


...just ask fools like me

who thought


they could by-pass

the binds of the Plan


with a fake transcendence

we'll tell you plain...


paradise is all around you

if you'd but let it be...
