illumination
right now,
i stand, my feet firmly
placed in the present.
right now,
my words feel profound,
and my writing
could guide the ones who come later
maybe, even, myself.
right now,
my life is entwined
with so many others,
and history seems
like a meaningful path
defining humanity's striving.
tomorrow,
all bets are off…
