Here no there
I can’t understand
The plan
To go from
The mighty
Hopes of today
To the realities of tomorrow
It’s neither here nor there
Nor anywhere
So where is the
Promise of tomorrow
If it’s not around
Here
Here no there
I can’t understand
The plan
To go from
The mighty
Hopes of today
To the realities of tomorrow
It’s neither here nor there
Nor anywhere
So where is the
Promise of tomorrow
If it’s not around
Here
We couldn’t get
Our hands
On the most valuable
Lands
Creeping to the sky
With real estate
Blowing by
The standards
Of housing
So we will live
Simply
Or as simple as we can
For now
You and I
Tither away
The days
To the greater good
Or the lesser
But either way
The days you get
Are the ones
You give
Away
I am barely holding
On to the loved
Beloved
And must love
I can only see
Myself wither
In the reflections
In the waters below
So I must hold hope
Where I go
I will know
There is hope below
Off of Lake Michigan
Down on Belmont
Next to Broadway
There is a place
That lines up
Out the door
Not always
But once more
The caramel taste hue
More than a drink
A life
Lifestyle
It’s where I learned something
I can’t quite explain
But the reality of age
Has the same
Effects
As that coffee did
Years ago
Up we go
So let’s keep
Rolling
When the hope
Is gone
So I hear
A new hope
Is coming
And I wait for the new
Bet coming in
This is news
Later is better
And not on time
But in any way
Just hope to make
The difference I can see
All hope is to make
What I can of
Myself
I could feel it in my hands
The glow of sun
Healing my stranded
Mind
From the billows
Of winters cold
I feel the healing light
In the depths of my
Own light
To rejuvenate
And give charge
Obligations
Across
A one man
Nation
Is to behold
The truth
As if gold
In the hands of a miner
To know the difference
Between right and wrong
And to do the best
Of the weak and strong
The holy grail
Is the moment at hand
So I only begin
To understand
That this is just
The mind of one man
In a state of mind
Today
And always
