One Thing's For Sure

We won’t need to heed Melville’s warning to the gullible: “the might-have-been is but Boggy ground to build on.”

Nor dream and hope for What could-never-be While the Confidence-Man Tweets.

Let whimsy reign. Let the body Belch ebullience And seed what-will-be.

Feel the sunshine on your chin. Today has no governor.
