You Are Here
by Philip F De Pinto
which is the latest here on the map
only a moment ago you were other than here
which was here just a short while back
the here in which you lingered a bit too long
which for that little cat nap got to know you exceedingly well
like the back of its hand in fact
and so you find yourself here - the latest
because being known that well didn't sit to well with you - hell
no here should know anyone that well
who is only a transient and wishes so to remain
and so you find yourself here - the latest here
in which you cannot afford to tarry more than a tad
lest you forfeit the transitory tag and worse - the mystery
which you were and wish to remain
and so you find yourself here - one of a bundle!
where no mystery can afford roots to lay down
lest laying down such roots they get the dirty low down on you
which is getting to know one like the back of one's hand in fact!
and what good is mystery when it is known that well or known in the least?
and so you will sit here less than a spell
not because you don't like it here so well
but remaining here more than a spell means spelling your doom
and so you find yourself here - the latest
in an effort to retaining the transitory tag
but better yet - the mystery!
and mystery is what you are and ever shall remain
if you don't tarry here too long a spell - hell
no here should know anyone that well
lest such low down spells doom - for which mystery makes no room
