A piece about the lonliness and isolation we can sometimes feel
Today's Tomorrow...
Todays's Tomorrow...
by Spargo Postle
Today is just an extension
of Yesterday
Today is just a forerunner
of Tomorrow
isolation
loneliness
solitude
being with myself
i belong to so many
so many belong to me
yet i sit here on my own
the words passing my lips
are for me
i used to congregate with people
converse by mouth
shake hands
hug and kiss
i used to feel the company of others
Now i have 'friends' by the hundred
Now i pass opinion after excremental opinion
Now i take criticism after cruel criticism
Now i read
Now i am read
i crave Yesterdays Tomorrow
all those i grew weary of
tedious conversations
the smell and touch of beings
the anonymity of the crowd
i crave my innocence
but
Today is what Tomorrow will bring
Today is what i've always wanted
Today fingertip's tap knowledge
Today i have 547 people who 'like' me
more lonely than i ever was
in a world of isolation
solitude in the internet
Tomorrow’s Tomorrow will bring...?
