I Never Got Anywhere

I'm not getting anywhere, 

and I'm not going anywhere, 

for you see I'm all ready here. 

I never went anywhere, 

and I never got anywhere, 

because I was always right here. 

The Self was always here, 

and I never noticed, 

go figure. 

So can I be proud, 

of all the fruitless effort, 

squandered all over town? 

To find myself, 

when I wasn't really lost;

such a fool. 

So here I am, 

having never left, 

or gone anywhere but here.
