The Right Now ©07

For the ones who did not know the beginning and the ones who could not see the end.
This suite is for you.

The sheroes and the heroes whose lives kept on living in a world not of their design
But uncovered a way, someway to march the miles & miles and miles that it took
To run off from what they were told did not belong to you,…

And yes.
You…
Be worthy of the right to put away the unearned spoils of abduction…
The can’t see to can’t see, until you can see again

In those times when it seems impossible to move away from yet another weight
From the lost souls whose words that desires assail my ears
A momentum that can move faster…
Fly higher…
Then Oprah, Obama, Tiger or the eagle in the sky, racing over one mile…
And miles and miles and miles and miles.

I have to think of your lives mislaid & your dreams nowhere to be found, we thought.
(And oh oh my)…
I have to get up, as there are no alternative but to do what is essential to do
Yes it can be hard, so terribly hard…
But vital to do …
The right now…
The right now…
The right now is a gift for you.
