I wander as I wonder just how far away to roam. Should I stop and ponder if I should have stayed at home. Don't know where I'm going, not sure where I've really been. The pay's no more for knowing about things I've never seen. But on I trudge without a map with no guide to lead the way. Maybe I should stop and nap. A brilliant way to spend a day.
