Art And Culture

TOMORROW

Fires in rainforests
and snow freezes in sunny rivers

All the rivers drained of moisture
become the stumbling word
of the midnight wind

Expensive air and cheap love

And the love that suffocates
in the rush to the time
when it’s just you and me

The mother’s breast is burnt
by the water droplets
falling from the raindrops

A life that goes away
without saying another word
in the long corridor of tomorrow

Tomorrow that fades into lost distance…
