Paradise
I don't need palm trees on a grassy lawn
Nor servants tending to my every whim;
A coconut within my hand, upon
A beach with men so good and looks so prim.
My satisfaction lies where greatness does,
A purposeful life and wisdom that guides;
Where I can pledge to justice real, because
It's nonexistent now. My paradise
Is sadly not my home, but where we die
With wrinkles and a life well spent, Alas
I'll have to tell my kids they cannot cry
If someone comes to school and shoots it fast.
The happiness, the Paradise, lies where
The land is equal and the men are fair.
