Yesterday’s tomorrow
has become today
which will soon become
tomorrow’s yesterday;
and change and sameness
are associated with each…
Yesterday’s oppression
remains with us today
and with eyes on the prize
we continue to seek that
tomorrow’s coming reprieve…
Let us be ever mindful
that yesterday’s ancestors
did more with less
that today we would have
less to do with more
that tomorrow’s heirs will
gain the coming prize…
Thus, each day perpendicular
to the surface of the earth—
yesterday, today, tomorrow—
let us ever give the spirit of God
the praise; for it is written
that each day is the day of the Lord
and, “…where the Spirit of the Lord
is, there is liberty.”
