If I sat really still,unmoving,
would I feel today slipping away?
would I feel its grip on the present slowly loosening and the past hungrily waiting at bay,
patiently ******* on everything that makes today,today.

If I strained my attention past today would I hear tomorrow coming?
Its shadow a saving grace to those who wish to escape today,
hoping to find a better today in tomorrow.

if I gave up on the now,would immobility take me somewhere else?
would refusing to live in today preserve my life for tomorrow?
