If i have tomorrow
What i have not today
Will it make for a better life
Will it be more enduring, this stay?
I have today
What i had not the day before
Yet, i wake up
With a head heavy and sore
Why can't i be like that bird
Oblivious to everything but the moment
Or like that cheerful goat
Smiling its way to the final torment
