The Future
The future is now Always going into the future Always receding away from the past An old lady now is not an old lady then And the young are constantly turned into adults What is an adult? A child with more context Eventually the rocking horse breaks Under the weight of a grown body And someone needs to find a job Don’t ask me what I do I don’t enjoy it I’d much rather be doing nothing Forever advancing into the future That big thing up ahead The end of the line
