Today

Saturday, March 10, 2001 TODAY Today...I walked outside and breathed fresh air... then I walked back in and sat in despair. Today...I picked up a broom and swept my floor!!! And then sat down and wondered, why for? Today...I turned on the tube and saw nothing at all... except the nameless and blameless, off the wall. Today...I sat at my Machine and reached for something, but fell short of my goal, and benefited nothing. Today...I struggled with myself, as I usually do, and won not victory, but a tie will do. Today...I realized, everyday isn't a win for me, and not for most folk; not you or thee. Today...was special, though, another day in my life... no matter whether it brought sorrow or strife. Tomorrow...will be different, don't you see, trendsetter; WATCH OUT FOR ME, I WILL GET BETTER! Written March 10th, 2001 © on Jun 12 2001 02:25 PM PST, Brazos Mason   0 • 12
