Been and Gone

please understand the concept

that ‘now’ does not exist,

and if you get that

you’ll quickly realise

neither does the future,

so don’t look forward to it

make plans for it

tell each other that

‘one day’ you’ll do this or that,

the only dead cert is the past

and if it is written accurately

recorded comprehensively

unbiased and with honesty

we can all sit back and relish

what’s already been and gone

without the worry, anticipation

or false hope of what might be
