I will not hold back today. I will seize the moment. All the excitement
and beauty of life is just as present in it as is or ever will be
possible. There is nowhere else to be. This is it. The potential for
life is here and now; there is not nor could there be another, more
important or soul-filled moment.
I will eat the fruit.
This is just to say
I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox
and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold
