Stanley Cooper (August 4th,1926 / New York City)
Nowhere
I've never been to No-where, so
I wonder what I've missed
No-where's a place I'd like to go
Just to learn where it exists
There have been many places I've been to
As a life-long renegade
But I've not found Any-where akin to
No-where, In my Else-where escapades
I've been Here and I've been There
Yet it seems that I've been limited
Since I've been to many Some-wheres
It's still No-where I've not visited
I know I'll find No-where some day
If it's not just my apparition
And you'll then read in my dossier
Of my triumphant No-where mission
