Today Is The Future
As we live on this earth
day by day.
As we think about tomorrow
and experiencing that tomorrow the next day,
You realize yourself being in the future
at that very moment,
You realize you were thinking about the same day
that you’re in right now
that you were thinking about yesterday.
The present is the past
regardless of today
and as we think of the

A dream for the future
Open your heart to nature, let her come inside,
spread her seeds, and all her trees,
so there's nowhere darkness can hide,
In the spring, the sovereign earth shall let out a mighty cry,
you my children shall forever live and never truly die,
the growth will boom, the shade abound and fruits of every kind,
just remember along the way

Embrace the future
day by day and brick by brick
we're building the foundation
of the person we want to be
who knows what lies around the corner
or who we'll meet upon our path
we hope to be ready in our hearts
and be the person we're proud to be
to make the most of each new opportunity

Back to the future
Went searching for good enough and discovered it can only come from within myself
So I went back to the future in a DeLorean to try to pinpoint when things began to veer off track so I could alter time to put them back
It took a few trips after realizing I couldn’t quickly flip the script
Started

The Keys to the Future
The doors to yesterday are shut tight and locked.
Only windows allow quick glimpses... you, face red and angry, eyes shut tight, refusing to accept reality away from your warm, slushy world of heart beats and distant voices.
Alas, we are all thrust out into bright lights,

Jofradamus can see the future
Oi Oi ..saveloy…caps do doff..bless Joffy boy…with injury woes and blows…
From the off some did scoff…Joff can no longer bowl for toffee…clearly not really…
Not being coy but some of those press hoi polloi said Ben had chose..
A risky ploy against our Indian foes…but seeing him let rip
For the fans unbridled joy..a trip to our

System Overload Rondine Back To The Future Tribute
Woahhh.. rock and roll. Definitely.
The system may just overload.
A lead foot going down the road.
Soft, a bit smooth? Not remotely.
That sound broke apart inside me,
hearing the guitar my pulse slowed.
Woahhh.. rock and roll.
Man that vibrates, this is heavy.
Music defined by that zip code,
with every lyric those roots showed.

The Future of Israel
As spoken by the Voice of Wisdom
O House of Israel,
Heed the sound of the wind that carries ancient truth across the sands of time.
Once you wandered through deserts and kingdoms,
Once you suffered at the hands of empires and tyrants,
And the world wept for you—
So great was your sorrow that even your enemies offered you a

The past and the future
A war was coming our way as a patriot, I enlisted
Although I was a bit elderly, I was accepted
sent to a camp, with the rank of sergeant in
charge of the kitchen
When the war ended, I took the bus back to my
village that looked the same as before, and

A letter to the future
Good morning there
Here I come..
With nothing in hand
But promise of the better you
I lament no more…
The torment of the past
Remain in the past
Here I pass my greetings.
I wax thinking my yesterday was the worst
Until I heard you are the best
Then I got perplexed by your possibilities
I got possessed by your peace
Here

The Future Will Paint Us Invisible
The past has always been
a foreign country,
step ten decades into the future
and you will be an alien.
Time takes no prisoners,
the past wipes out legions of beings,
their humanity is a thin cloth
whipped by relentless winds.
This country of ours
is a body with endless names,
generations that we make and remake
with foreign hands and minds,
even yesterday is a stranger
