the fierce urgency of now

yesterday is cast in stone
I may not understand it
I certainly cannot change it
I wouldn't know where to start editing
tomorrow is all shadowy and itlan
we guarantee you'll be surprised
and there's that editing problem again
between solid and vapor lies
the urgent
liquid
now
