Chewed Up And Spit Out (In a Bowl)

I wrote a book about paradise
And how living in paradise isn't what it's like in books.
You can't hold attentions with pretty sunsets and white sand.
Computer desktops crop out the gritty lives of the kiribati
But that's what it's like living in paradise.
So what do you do when you're down
And out on an island the size of a nipple?
Simple.
