there is only today
in all its finite glory
easy to succumb
to tomorrow
and its myriad concerns
the pressures of time
and tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
unfolding into the abyss
but today
there are meals to eat
entertainments to enjoy
pets to pet
sunshine to bask in
fellows to love
and despite desire
tomorrow will not conform
will not organize, codify, regiment
will not come in line
it is tomorrow, smoke
but today
is now
and now is where we live.
