The Land Beyond

there is a land beyond your eyes but you must stare at the sun the whitish glare but a disguise it is one that hides another one there is a land beyond your ears you must be a dog to even hear the mystic cloud ever nears never mind it, never fear there is a land beyond the pale that can be seen, but not understood its milk and honey have gone stale as screaming babes yowl for their food

Thanks Joyce, the poem is about something beyond articulation, it only indicates.
