Now
is forever,
now forever,
the long wait
of disappointed days
appointed
to be afar off
and away;
out of reach
of our grasp
that flails forlornly
in the air
striking at
shimmering
apparitions
that were never here
never real
in the now;
that forever now
that finds us
flailing
with outstretched
mendicant hands
grasping at pity
for pity’s sake,
until the shimmering itself
stops,
and we awake
from dreamless dreams
and sleepless sleep
staring agape
at
where we were
and are
in the now,
forever
‘Now’ makes us realise the importance of valuable time NOW …
