a century ago

a century ago 

depended on tomorrow-

hopes, 

      dreams, 

               fame, 

                    & glory

hottest pursuits, 

collective life goals

none of them invalid

no judgements to pass

just looking back, 

it's easy to see—

while father time marches on,

mother earth grows frail.

guilty are we all...

for taking so many tomorrows,

(promised to none)

for granted.
