Will the Present Forget

On which side of the authority line do you fall… The pulpit, The assembly line, The suite down the hall Who makes the decisions, do you stand—do you kneel Is it giving or receiving, do you take—do you steal How many horizons, do your dreams fall behind Are they distant—uncertain, not in view to remind Where your memories lie, are your promises kept Is the past now your future —will the present forget (Villanova Pennsylvania: November, 2016) (Abbreviated) Are Promises Kept Where your memories lie, are your promises kept Is the past now your future —will the present forget (Villanova Pennsylvania: November, 2016)
