The moment defines
what delusion betrays
The past and tomorrow
both lead us astray
To live ever constant
within what we know
Alive and sustaining
— perpetually so

Kurt I love this one where we live perpetually in the moment with neither future of past existing a fave
Thanks Soren. STAY PRESENT
You are welcome Kurt I have no other options
Kurt…this feels remarkably centered and distilled. The poem carries a kind of meditative stillness while quietly confronting illusion, time, and presence. “The past and tomorrow / both lead us astray” lands with simple but profound clarity. Beautiful work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Not sure what you do for a living, but your talent for analysis and criticism could become your new career. Thank again.
