I Don't Mind

it isnt wrong to write about home
to care about that more than any cause
or arent you still both a citizen of Oz

and Kansas too.
the you that is the real you whether or not
the skies be emerald now or blue

is there so much you have forgot?
all things are there. even the dream you dream
is rooted there after all the lullabies

have gone by. what men live by Tolstoy wrote about.
and others too.
but as for you

home is everything.
if they think me a fool for saying that
I don't mind.
