The Perverse Presence

– NoeticNonsense

I live in the here,
just not right now.

 
I presently, live in the past.
In the past, I’ve lived in the
nuanced present.
 
I go internal so that I can
externalize.
 
And when I wake up;
sometimes, I feel down.
 
They say if you can’t
beat them, join them.
I’d rather leave them than
lose them.
 
If we’re talking about right
now, just save it for later.
