Choo Choo Darling, Once in Tennessee: Return of the Seminarian

Sadly I completely screwed myself over
I waited way too long to even start to be able to explain
so all I can offer is bits and pieces at this time

In some places there are turtles
and there is peace waiting

In other places there are stars
and life is more wondrous in natural color

In some places it is truly hard to tell
between what thrives and what survives

In some place the brute force of struggle
maintains a sleeping presence in power

In every place there are eyes
always watching, always seeing, always quacking at your trying

In some places privacy is allowed
yet other places know no such thing

In other places there is obvious challenge
working to change your mind, your heart, your soul

In some places there is singing
following tradition and lending joy to ear and heart


But in all places there is love
wrapped up in danger, comfort and companionship

And every place needs a little fun
something surprising and never quite the same


All in all, in the end
there is no place like home
