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.

So simply and beautifully said, I love it, Maury. No pride, no guilt = no energy wasted.
