| How my day will go There is an endless sense of agitation In each morning The sun will seep through my eyelids I will flicker away in gnawing unease The sun is not so beautiful to me As it is to you The sun is a persistent presence I find solace in the moon Tomorrow is another day A ringing in my ear– people, Once I step foot outside Cursed people who know no art! But I do, it’s true that I do I go away from the crowds, Tomorrow is another day I will sneer at anything ugly, Anything ugly is no art Flies will linger over my food I will swat at them helplessly I want to see them no more! I shove the food away desperately The flies will follow, And I will leave from there Tomorrow is another day My heart will overload with warmth And I will sigh it all out It’s all a result of my art I smile at my hands These hands which write, draw and play music, Are brilliant! There is nobody here to share it with An artist should be in solitude to perform, anyway Tomorrow is another day When my art is shared It is forgotten Who’s to blame? My language, not being expressive enough The reader, having no reading comprehension Me, being uninteresting. I will cry either way Tomorrow is another day |
