“I'm down here in Mexico, sick as a dog.
My head is poundin' in this border town fog.
Down to my last dime and comin' apart at the seams.
I've messed up in Mexico, livin' on refried dreams.”

And now as I wonder, my thoughts ever stray

“Halfway down the stairs
Is a stair
Where I sit.
There isn't any
Other stair
Quite like
It.
I'm not at the bottom,
I'm not at the top;
So this is the stair
Where
I always
Stop.

Halfway up the stairs
Isn't up,
Isn't down.
It isn't in the nursery,
It isn't in the town.
And all sorts of funny thoughts
Run round my head:
"It isn't really
Anywhere!
It's somewhere else
Instead!"”
