On Location - a poem.

Over a sea of tan, blue and green 
crowded with a thousand printed words
naming towns, forests, parks
and every conceivable landmark
is a giant red arrow
emblazoned with the words You Are Here
pointing to one particular obscure spot
with no road leading up to it
and no road leading away
so that I merely know Where I Am right now.

I decide that is enough.
