ETERNITY

There is no time in Paradise!
Do not worry.
Do not hurry.
If the kettle is too small
it will not spoil it
to fill it twice
and boil it.

There is no time in Paradise.
Until they count the footprints of the sun
to distinguish what is no longer here
from what has not yet begun.

That’s mine.
Because I had it yesterday!

You can have your yesterday
but this is mine
because I have it now.
