Uncertain Futures

Uncertain Futures

A Poem by Dave "Doc" Rogers
"

Musing on vacuous nether... or something like that

"

Uncertain futures
Creating lives in flux
Moments in time
Veiled in projection


All there is is now
One must do, one must do
Ever busy, ever busy
No forethought of outcome


Waving arms
Excited voices
Bold type-faced print
Uncertain tomorrows preached


Hope, what is that?
Words redefined
Lost meanings gone
Hope, no more than vapor


Tomorrow, not guaranteed
Today, one must do
Yesterday, consternations of the past
Past, future, the same in execution


Live, breathe, do
The moment passes
Faces blur 
Deeds, best forgotten


With all that given
I press on
Uncertain futures
Certain in arrival


Do, decide, do
Best guess
Better than none
Try, fail, try, succeed


Go, do
What if
Why not
Maybe right


Uncertain futures
Decrying TV faces
Uncertain futures
Hopeless consternations


I persist
I do
In spite, to spite
What is there to lose?


Persist, I win.
