Tomorrow’s lullaby
in footnotes to Dylan
Tomorrow blistering
confronting the sun
Tomorrow lingering
while calling your name
Temptation disguising
what’s never to come
Tomorrow’s redemption
the present to ransom
Tomorrow in voices
a chorus of ghosts
Tomorrow forgiving
each sin of unmaking
Tormenting each moment
—you treasure the most

Brilliant!
thank you, dear Poet
for once again inspiring my little scribble:
(clock's move back n forth, GMT
yet we're left trailing tomorrow's
too invested in yesterday's mirages
and existence's - mean, defined
in circumstances delivered to us
by causality's, deficiencies
and in each misinterpreted, moment
we ask if redemption, begins
with us or happenstance)
Very kind. Thanks LB.
