Placelessness

What is this place?
This is a home in Gloucester,
A town way out of the way
What is this place?
This is a school
The people here are strange
I need a brand new place.
Moving on,
What is this place?
A Governor’s school
For people like me
The ones that just need an understanding space
What is this place?
A long white hall
Full of people in gowns
I say goodbye
I need a brand new place.
What is this place?
This is a room in Blacksburg,
Miles and Miles away
What is this place?
Seeing a lab
Through goggled vision and lab coat white
What is this place?
This is home.
