Spin

Spin the globe
See where it lands
Could it stop in Atlanta, George?
Birmingham, UK or Antioquia, Colombia

What would it be like to spend a week there?
Could you find what you’re looking for?
Maybe Queensland, Australia or anywhere in Spain
Would that answer all those questions?
That left everything empty

The globe spin stopping in mediocrity
Not the name on map
Huntsville, Alabama or Groningen
It's not the place that made you run
But what you lost within

Trying to fill the lost with air miles
Filling the well with images
From Romania, Brugherio or Bayern

Each place touching you
with all those smiles
from all those faces
the background the only thing different
reflected form those eyes

spin the globe
see where it lands
for distant places
pleased that you could land

Memories from Rome or Paris
And helping hands
Unaware they were rebuilding
This soul that was broken
Images pilled high
Pleased to touch every soul
Smiled at all the immaturity
Yet still willing to mend

Spin this globe
see If it stops spinning
someplace near
even those places call your name

It is not the places that rebuild
the people that make those names special
The images a bonus
A perk of life
