Tomarrow and tomarrow and tomarrow

                               

                                     DEFEAT IN THE MORNING

 

                                   Yep, I'm down once more

                                   checking the morning mail.

                                   And sure enough, here are                              

                                   those brain dead magazines 

                                   again and yet more bills and

                                   endless, endless fliers.

                                   Oh, why aren't there calls

                                  please to some glorious event,

                                  or grand achievement or

                                  a poignant letter from

                                  a  long lost darling

,                                 telling me she still cares?

                                 The sun's warm, though, today

                                 and the skies are clear,

                                 and I'll be shuffling on

                                 through my paces

                                 until I check 

                                 the  mail again tomarrow,         

                                 and the morning after that.

I sense an empty loneliness in the lines where while the voice character waits for something to happen. I imagine there are many people waiting instead of getting out there and doing. It's a cold world out there but it doesn't need to be.

I think it is good not to give up hope even if it is sad too sometimes. Nicely expressed, Bennett. Thank you. Love and peace to you,

Regis
