TO THE FUTURE

By Matt Decker

To the human who's stuck -

Muck. Mire. Rut.

>

To the heart ripped apart -

Stark. Hurt. Dark.

>

To the mind in a bind -

Behind. Confined. Blind.

>

To the prisoner of circumstance -

Song and dance of happenstance.

>

To the given moment -

Dormant. Torment. Lonesome.

>

To the unpleasant present -

Desert. Restless. Incessant.

>

To this Space and Timing -

Existing. Twisting. Winding.

>

These lines align for you

To fathom a farther view.

>

Exercise in Futurity

To exorcise futility.

>

TO THE FUTURE!

(and beyond)

A suture,

A balm.

>

To a better unfettered date

On the Great Calendar of Fate.

>

To the time yet to be -

Next chapter.

New history.

>
