A Long Time Coming

BY JOHN CODY

And I said, “Today’s The Day!” And Tomorrow, I did nothing.

Such is, A Brain of thoughts, but no action. A Mouth of words, but no speech. A pair of Ears, in constant ignorance.

A Soul.

Nascent.

Oriented? Conflicted. Unsure?

All is, A Mind, an incestuous circle. A cyclical chamber of Doubt, Guilt, Grief, Fear, Regret, Apathy, Contradictory Pride. — Ego. — Self-fulfilled Comeuppance.

And I said, “Today’s The Day!” And Tomorrow, was a long time coming.
