  1. The world is a place of stark beauty, even in places of barrenness. The actual Earth, with its great peaks and hollowed out canyons, is awesome. The polar opposites are found in the ice caps and the lava flow. The great expanses of ocean vs. the miles of empty desert.


  2. it is isn't it.

  3. It's more than beautiful, it's perfect. The big problem is that we take it for granted and we destroy it with our negligence

  4. The World is a Beautiful Place



    The world is a beautiful place

    to be born into

    if you don't mind happiness

    not always being

    so very much fun

    if you don't mind a touch of h**l

    now and then

    just when everything is fine

    because even in heaven

    they don't sing

    all the time

    The world is a beautiful place

    to be born into

    if you don't mind some people dying

    all the time

    or maybe only starving

    some of the time

    which isn't half bad

    if it isn't you

    Oh the world is a beautiful place

    to be born into

    if you don't much mind

    a few dead minds

    in the higher places

    or a bomb or two

    now and then

    in your upturned faces

    or such other improprieties

    as our Name Brand society

    is prey to

    with its men of distinction

    and its men of extinction

    and its priests

    and other patrolmen

    and its various segregations

    and congressional investigations

    and other constipations

    that our fool flesh

    is heir to

    Yes the world is the best place of all

    for a lot of such things as

    making the fun scene

    and making the love scene

    and making the sad scene

    and singing low songs and having inspirations

    and walking around

    looking at everything

    and smelling flowers

    and goosing statues

    and even thinking

    and kissing people and

    making babies and wearing pants

    and waving hats and

    dancing

    and going swimming in rivers

    on picnics

    in the middle of the summer

    and just generally

    'living it up'

    Yes

    but then right in the middle of it

    comes the smiling

    mortician

    A little morbid and weird, but a nice poem nonetheless.
