“Oh,
I’ll get around to it someday,”
The procrastinator chimes.
“Right now, this, tomorrow, that.
It’s only a matter of time.”
But time doesn’t stay,
It keeps running away,
And tomorrow may never arrive
We cannot foresee and there’s no guarantee
We’ll be lucky enough to survive.
The young man may look to the future,
And the young woman sketches her schemes.
But chance and delay comes to get in the way
Causing chaos to shatter their dreams.
Rosanna retires with a whimpering whine
After decades of struggle and sweat,
But the greatest desires
Of her youth have expired
And now she looks back with regret.
Tomorrow’s dark phantom
Looks back with a scowl
To humbly remind us…
The future is now.
