One night as I sat all alone
staring at the ceiling
I was suddenly awakened
by a strange unusual feeling.
What if my body
was a temporary home
was a temporary home
to a wandering spirit
that liked to roam?
that liked to roam?
Where on earth
did I want to go to next?
did I want to go to next?
That thought
left me totally perplexed.
left me totally perplexed.
I was not sure
whether to have a nap
whether to have a nap
or spend some hours
looking at a map.
looking at a map.
Eventually
I thought it out
I thought it out
and poured
another glass of stout.
another glass of stout.
