Somewhere In America

Somewhere in New York,
A piece of paper floats
Several stories above the ground.

Somewhere in Virginia,
The devil licks a lime
And fire erupts.

Somewhere in Pennsylvania,
There is a swan song
Where angels are born.

Somewhere uncharted,
A stenographer is busy
Watching the eyes of the free world
Closely.
