The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."

As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Procrastinate Now!

No finer time than the present
if only the future weren't there
with blandishment incandescent
and its acres of space to spare.

The past is done and recorded
so I’ll give yesterday a miss
with today bought and afforded
tomorrow might still earn the kiss.



Line count: 8
