among us are many
who always dreamed
of a happy childhood
but never had one themselves.
among us there are many
who always dreamed
of a happy home,
never to be
found.
these are our discontents.
these are our salvation.
their homes can not be created
from what currently exists.
it can only be created
from that which never was
but was always destined
to arrive.
once we learn
how to build their shelters
and nurture their joy
so that it will be passed on,
then the kingdom is constructed
for all of posterity
forever.
those with happy homes already,
but which aren't open to others,
stand in the way of progress,
and separate this world
from the next.
they can't be asked to risk
the happiness of their children.
their insecurity is simply
too profound.
it is the homeless
who will build
the kingdom.
it is the unhappy
who will mass-produce
true joy.
