Listen to poem:

On This Forever

On This Forever
David J Walker

On this today
I will live in
This Forever
As if
This forever 
	Has never 
Been lived before

Never is when
This today will end 
As if 
This sun will send
It’s rays

In a never-ending
Display
of brilliant light
There will be no night
Tonight

Nor twilight
No sunsets insight

I will ride with
	Helios’ horses
Dragging behind me
the Unconquered Sun

Conquered now and dressed 
In the rags of a vagabond 

Who will kneel and
Humbly proclaim
The name of the 
Only living God

This forever 
	Will never end

As I live and die where
Tomorrow never comes
