Fantastic
by JJ

I pay time, I pay money
This day's fine
I have nothing to lose

I must think, I must ponder
I stay home
But I wander away

It's fantastic to stay home and wander the world

The knight jumps, the queen dances
The board moves
The players lay on the floor

My mind moves the last of the pieces
The game plays
Onto the end of time

It's fantastic to stand here and rotate the world

Concentration is difficult to bear
Just lay back, relax, and soar through the air
Quit feeling guilty for wanting to take yourself there
Enjoy the music, the notes, they come out in pairs

I might fret, I might worry
I might think
I can walk the line

I might choose, I might linger
I fear not
The failure of my goals

It's fantastic
To stay home and wander the world
To stand here and rotate the world
To try and then to change the world
