If you could make it back home
You think you’d kiss the ground first thing
But you would spend a day
Squinting at the glint off the buildings
Another day wondering where you are and why nothing’s familiar
Why come back at all?
Right now a bowl of stew
Is more real than a golden inheritance
And the heart serves up a better meal
Than the feast of kings
They’re all strangers back there now, anyway, with their faces turned away
Why go back at all?
What’s right is right is right is real
