The Future in the Past











What happens?
When life transitions beyond the measure of your past
When the world builds a new, unadulterated stage
Beyond labor, or even wage
For a human life that’s meant to last
Through the fear and ambition of its own making

Where?

I would ask,

Is the future’s place

When it seems so rooted in the past

Through the eyes and words of an optimistic face

When it waits to exist and change, for a life that’s meant to last
