“Remember, no matter where you go, there you are.” ~Buckaroo Banzai
Some Place Else
“I wish I wasn’t here” is what
A lot of people think
Because the school or job or place
They are right now does stink
They think that they belong elsewhere
And that they’re being wasted
They long for other ventures that
They’ve previously tasted
It is important to accept
That sometimes where we are
Precisely is where we should be
Not some place that’s afar
Sometimes we wind up somewhere
Not just for our own sake
Instead it is to influence
And a difference make
Sometimes we wind up surrounded
By those we abhor
To make them grow in patience and
To make ours strengthen more
Sometimes impact that we have
On people who are near
Plays a monumental role
For them to conquer fear
Sometimes even though we think
That we’re being held back
Our character invigorates
Another peer’s attack
Worry not, brave Warriors
That you aren’t in right place
A Warrior does not in fact
Have any true home base
They are precisely where they should
Be, which is where they’re standing
Countries, buildings, companies
They don’t subscribe to branding
The Warrior can never wish
To be some place not here
‘Cause “here” is always where they are
No matter place or year
~Miro
