Yesterday

When it happened
What did you say
How did you rationalize
All the people breaching
The Capital building
Yesterday?

Nothing, no one
Can make it seem right
in
Today
Tomorrow
or
Yesterday.

When It Happened, Where It Came To Pass

When it happened
Where it came to pass
Now
I know it’s not to last.

In the beginning
At the start, I saw heaven
A place
To rest my heart.

To sleep in restful peace
Bliss being part
Of all I began
I had to start.

All that came to happen
Beginning at the end
Ending
At the start.
