sometimes the first
thought that comes into
my head should have been re-
sisted at all costs..

that´s tenses for you-
lily looks pensive-
or this time of year
like retrospective

would i have lived different
given it all again..i don´t
think there was much choice
all in the stars-

and that..as bukowski says
born into this..
the instant of creation
been and gone..

ii

or as we say
tomorrow is another day
to be continued..
