MYOPIA

Well of course

Now is happening

Walking down a flight of stairs

And thinking of tomorrow

Not a good idea

How about when driving

Tomorrow needs a separate time

Not crammed into now

Planning time evaluating time

Get away time make up your mind time

When the present gets set aside

And the past as well

Especially that it’s called the past

For a good reason

Fresh time balanced time

Juggling time

Get all the balls in the air

At first they all will fall

Then just some

You will know when

And how many

This is what you have

To decide on

Plans are made

If then but how about

Then decide and return to

The cacophony of today

But what about the next day

And the day after that

They don’t exist without tomorrow true

Tomorrow is solutions

All the rest for living

The reward for tomorrow

And it’s sharp edged choices

These days need to be

Imagined visualized felt

Anticipated longed for

Nothing definite

Put them in your pocket

Something to pat

Every now and then
