Utopia

Utopia

I'm sure I know where to return to nature,

it's Borneo, bang on the equator.

No failure, escape from Hell,

it's Australia where more species dwell.

What's the matter with you man,

it's Africa where life began.

It's round the corner, I've found Haven,

it's California where we get our raisins.

Why must we liner when we could be,

in India living for free.

So happily we all could dwell,

in Glastonbury, The Heart of the World.

It's Ethiopia, and here's my reason,

it's Utopia, the Garden of Eden.

You're all wrong, it's definitely,

the river Jordan, by the Dead Sea.

I couldn't more highly rate,

Hawaii, where they grow the dates.

Leave this Island, and I mean now!

I know where Mount Zion's found!

Stop all that corn 'cause I've found Heaven,

it's in between Cornwall and Devon.

I've been enlightened, this is no guess,

it's either Brighton or Totnes.

I've found the zone, it's time to fly,

to Arizona with the Purple skies.

I've got a clue, I'm not mistook,

it's gotta be Peru, it says so in me book.

What you trying to run from when it's alright,

right here in London, the 'City of Light?'.

It's planet Mars, it's Sirius,

come on now are you serious?

Sure there are questions about our 'natural design',

yet Earths gems, we must bless 'em and see the divine.

All we must 'do' is see that we are alive,

yet sadly the few ever truly revive.

Because until we can embrace every now,

then we might as well throw in the damn towel.

'Cause that's what connects us to all space & time,

exterior factors come and go, rain or shine.

With people in Igloo's and people in cardboard,

in order to live, you must jump a few hurdles.

Searching for security that's safer than houses,

perhaps at the peril of our kids or our spouses.

Excess is criminal, no waste and no greed,

low impact, & minimal, just meet all your needs.

Sure you can trade in this status for that,

but ultimately it's about your heart and your gut.

Trade in one comfort, to bonus another,

but the fire inside is as real as above ya.

Life is the challenge to remain in your heart,

despite your location, that is the real art.

So take care of the now, and find your destination,

be it a new mind set, or the next sovereign Nation.

Look inside AND out, but look inside firstly,

then there's less doubt about the physical, Earthly.

The Infinite Moment, beyond flesh, there's no lack,

so called 'Utopia' is Where You Are At.
