Tomorrow

It is tomorrow …
the list are put away,
flags are folded
the echo of speeches,
names and taps has faded,
flowers in the wreaths
have begun to wilt.

It is tomorrow …
heroes will fall,
they will hate us still,

It is tomorrow …
and you have already forgotten.

Some of what I write is true, some is fiction; most is merely possibility.
