Poem: Here

By Jack Brummet


When I'm not here
I'm often there

Which is anywhere
That's not here.

I'm there,
But not all there.

I have to be
A little here

To be there
And a little there

To be here.
Being here

Or being there
Is not being everywhere.

When you go anywhere
You leave a little bit behind,

Shedding pieces
Here there and everywhere.

If you're not here
And you're not there

You are somewhere
Neither here nor there

And somewhere
Could be anywhere

But can't be
Everywhere.

I saw a bear.
Where? Over there.
