Life in 'The Here and Now'

I'm here, right now, ring fencing the
'Here and now'...saving the seats of the
Moment, overlooking the rushing feet
Hither and thither; frustrated faces
Versus strolling slow worms, in the
Way of the fast cats on a mission
To fulfill tomorrow, not a meandering
In sight for The 'Here and Now'
Chastising chatter, voices covered under
Breathy botherers...read their faces....
"You're in my way, move I have no time for
The 'Here and Now'".  Racing along the rabbit
Run, careering into themselves without noticing
Reality from fiction...would it even matter...?

So can we wait? ....Do we wait?....think about it
The wooden blocks stepping and squaring up
For us to position our feet upon their surface
Get familiar in the now, feel the stepping stones
Testing their form, how they hold your
Footfall, wobbly, wavouring, shaky, know
Them and practise stocking up with their special
Kind of security and sturdiness, despite being
Downright inconvenient at times but certainly
Never dull, difference is on their side, trying
To break the fast lane journey, steering you...
If you will....into the 'Here and Now', buckled
Seat belt in place for the journey of your
                                                                  .......'Life'

Short and sweet today folks.....have a good one....
