When I Don’t Want To Be Here

Let yourself
arrive.
For
whether
you prefer it,
you are
here.

Here, invite
the mind
to stay.
Steer wanderlust
to places
touched
now.

Now,
if perpetually
snubbed,
eventually
invoices
ever-lookers
elsewhere.

Elsewhere is not
to be
feared
or enshrined.
Life is meant
to be
attended.
