Yesterday reared its ugly head
To reign and paint today’s rain red
Seduce the mind and rape dead peace
Through Today’s stolen, bitter kiss
Today a circle so viciously formed
Around success and being totally doomed
Farther from the frontier of success
Sinking deeper into doom’s fortress
Today scrambles hurriedly to safety
In the guise of being gentlemanly
Tomorrow smiles and embraces scorn
Setting the pace for a gain-less run
Genuine drive implodes randomly
Indecision gains ground evenly
Gained grounds give grounds in a shameless run
As tomorrow’s blur continues to burn
If today braves the sorrow instead
Turned and faced yesterday face to face
Tomorrow’s bliss will be assured definitely
A hard worker is a sure candidate for fun
