Maybe Today

-every action shadows transaction-

Maybe today
I want to play!
Could I? Would I?

The scent on my fingers
Dictates today, year
By year, go figure...

You! Today!
I don’t want to play!
If I did, could I?

The smell of my shoulder
Predicts tomorrow,
Year by year, go figure…

Okay! Today?
I can’t play, if
I could, I would.

The sound of my household
Pieces my world, today,
Tomorrow is years away.

-I don’t want to be the opposite
Of what I am-

Wish I could play today,
But no way.
Inside, I have to stay.
So no play, today,
Maybe later.

Fun little poem, thanks.

Walt

A lot of self doubts. Like you can't really make up your mind or something. Most people just decide it once and for all, but not on a daily basis. Not really sure of what you are referring to "play". Like the mind - the message wasn't clear,

Take care, Erin.

You certainly make me think when I read you...its too early in the morning and I have not had enough sleep to figure this out, but I did certainly enjoy reading it...you are a most able philosopher...peace, Ed & Rufuz (woof)
