they mock me because i idealize
but i feel sympathy that they eyes can't see the ideal
cause to idealize to to see the with ideal eyes
not ideal lies
i see what CAN BE
but i don't JUST see what can be
i see what is
and i look at the route from Is Street to Our-Potential Avenue
and when i feel low
i gain strength by looking at how far Is Street is from Where-We-Came-From Boulevard
i see the best in us in the eyes of our daughters and sons
sets and rises of our sons
remember that moonshine is not always a compound word
but natue's light in nature's dark
the yin in the black sky of yang
i be an idealist
make my ideal lists
of everything from home improvements
to the things about me i want to be
there is no bus from Is Street to Our-Potential Avenue
no air-conditioned seat on wheels
but that isn't to say there can't be
