you had better get yourself ready for
te new happiness
and the new happiness is the happiness
that comes living in this world
when the word for resurrection has
unraveled on your lips
and bethlehem lies just east
of your bathroom
the happiness of this world is
when contentment comes in knowing
that this thing that is almost
almost perfect
this day almost, almost
complete
this peace tinged with touches
of fear has hope seeeds
and joy seeds
when you look into your wrinlking mortal
flesh and by some godly gift
can see eternity
when tomorror and tomorrow and the terror
of tomorrow fold up ad roll up
into a ball and burn up to be replaced
by eternity
then you will see the new happiness
that rises like mushroom from the
matter of this world
