We Live Only In The Past Poem by Clinton Siegle

We live only in the past
Past ghost's memories of fun and life
almighty recollection of the afterlife
seasons changed passing by in this life
time to remember to laugh more in this life.

Present at hand what can we do but be a man
at hand to be an honest man
seasons present-day happenstance to be a man's
time is but a moment on the stage of life of a man.

Prospective ghosts do the plans
approaching the past with the present plan
seasons future is man's plan
time is but a moment in existence to live in laughter on the stage is man's plan

forethought a future requires a good recollection of the past ghosts
executing the layout is the present-day ghosts.
