Tomorrow

September 16, 2009
Lying in the darkness,
I stare at my watch in surprise;
Surely it is time to rise,
But no, it's not even tomorrow yet!

Of course, it never is--
Tomorrow, I mean.
Like infinity and someday and desire,
Tomorrow is a moving target.

So I read a bit
And write in my journal
Waiting for the magic of sleep
To transform the day.
