Earth Surely Is The Place Of Purgatory

Earth surely is the place of purgatory Where “homeowners” are bolstered up - Are thrilled by and thrive in lies and slavery And would sooner scoff at desert encampments But I think it should be most savory To call a canyon pathway a sidewalk And a gnarled ironwood a canopy And afford a mountain cave to a vagrant.
