Analysis of Within The Moment
Write it big
Write it strong
Write it eternal,
…a poets song
Make your words clear
Make right from wrong
The message short,
…the meaning long
This time only lent
The whispers uncloud
The opening prescient,
…reasons abound
Write it forever
Write it out loud
Within the moment,
…happening now
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2016)
