Tomorrow rapidly transforming into today
Open ears are rare, I had a lot to say
The more you see black and white, the more I see gray
It ain’t all good, it’s barely okay
I’m not stable
But even the earth rotates
In constant revolution
You’ll see your beginning again
Then again and again
Until God says the end
Until then
My pages keep kissing my pens
Life as about as shifty as the wind
Look, you lost another friend
That’s how quick death is
Homo sapiens wasting their 365’s
By the 24-7’s
How can we say one is legal at 18
When kids die at age 11
Hard to say what’s the length of a lifetime
How long is left is hard to say
Tomorrow rapidly transforming into today.
-Christopher K.P. Brown
