The Impossibility of Living in the Moment

by Max Bouillet

Tomorrow flashes her breasts
and yesterday kisses my ear.

Today, there is too much work to do.

IÂ’d much rather see breasts
or have my ears kissed.

(And they wonder why nothing
ever gets done.)

This is very candid, and makes me chuckle.

Great sense of humor! Brief but tells the tale!

AH yes, luring us away against our best efforts to resist. Isn't that instinctual drive amazing and blessed. I love your words. peace --bf

This terse piece has endless possibilities and a lustful quality that reaches well beyond all time. Now if you’ll excuse me I have to get back to work, hehe!!

...and it is always today -- the mind works in mysterious ways :)
