Tomorrow

"Tomorrow I will wake up confronted with
reminders of the past..."

Tomorrow I will wake up confronted with
reminders of the past:
                             the panes in the wall;
                             tubes on the table;
                             frames in the hall; and
                             flesh shades open in mortal fear.

My brain, a dog spiraling round its tether point,
has no choice now but to lie down. 
Sleep:
      The windows are shut,
      the TV is off,
      the pictures are quiet, and
      eyes are peacefully shut. 

Tomorrow is already here.
