How Now?

First a man,
Then a writer,
A poet, a singer,
A heart exciter.

Upon completing
This procession
(it may be eternal)
I hope to learn
A valid lesson.

Where do I stand
At the end of the day?
(though the day has no end)
In a forest
The sidewalk is leagues away.

The gaze is ahead,
Not up nor down,
For the future will be,
The past once was,
But the present's now.

That is how,
The here and now.
