Today in Paradise

Today in paradise

Rest a man forgiven 

for acts of treason

By those who now reason

That it is human to err


Is it human to err

When overseers

turn a deaf ear

When justice

tilts the balance

And bribes prance

At the corruption dance

Where conscience is seared


Today in paradise

Rest a man forgiven

By men who could not

Remove his mote

Because of the plank, they tote

in their own eyes
