I like it there wherever I am

I like it there wherever I am
I daydream all day of the people I would rather be around
It is a small list
Todd comes to mind
But before he got in all the trouble he is in now
I would have to go back to 1990 on him
Ted is another
Till he whacked me in the head accidentally with my own seven iron
I miss the Saturday mornings watching the Smurfs and School House Rock
I miss the Dunkin Donuts and red hot jawbreakers
I wish I was back in Yellowstone watching the geysers and hot springs
I wish I could go to Mars and have some real privacy
I wish I could go back in time when there was only 200 million people
And not the 7.5 billion we have right now
I would like to live in Norway or Canada
Where people are treated with respect
Yes, I like it there wherever I am
Because where I am at isn't too peaceful

About this poem:
This USA culture I find myself living in really has me troubled at times.
