YESTERDAY'S TOMORROW

                                               YESTERDAY’S TOMORROW

                                                Today is yesterday’s tomorrow. 

We live in the now.

Today is real, the others aren’t.

Yesterday was today when it was,

and .tomorrow never comes,

 but , according to Will,

 “creeps in this petty pace

from day to day 

to the last syllable

of recorded time.”

And  Albert says

that the separation

of past, present and future

is only an illusion,

but admits that it is a conveniency

so that everything

doesn’t happen at once

.

Yesterday, he says,

is a cancelled check,

tomorrow a promissory note,

and today the only cash we have,

so spend it while you can.
