The poem “Forever Yesterday” is based on thoughts of the dynamic between the permanence of the present moment and the haunting ghosts of the past.
Listen to poem:
The forever yesterday is no more
has passed away like the fog
now defunct as fading mists
pressed upon by sunlit beams
those artifacts of a past day
once entrenched as if to stay
find no traction in beliefs
torn apart by time’s conceit
dismissing mountains without regard
for the depths of bedrock’s plunge
seeming solid before the breeze
took the hill and cast it down
leaving only memories
the ghosts in place of solidity
a forever that’s passed away
just like the present sure to stay.
