tomorrow, tomorrow
Published in

I am expectant
of a sun, rising
of a dutiful, heart
of a world as machine
I am indifferent
to summer’s romance
and winter’s despair
to voice and laughter
sight and seeing
and all the mechanics
of living, being
I sit by a fire
reveling
the warmth and fallacy
of life’s routine
not today—
hands up, eyes to sky
I promise, promise
to live out my days
never knowing
tomorrow, tomorrow
