TO-MORROW, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: To-morrow? Then your one word left is always now the same
Last Line: Since time began with women, but old age and wrinkled skin?
Alternate Author Name(s): Macedonius Of Thessalonica; Macedonius Consul
Subject(s): Time


To-MORROW? Then your one word left is always now the same:
And that's a word that names a day that has no more a name.
To-morrow, I have learned at last, is all you have to give:
The rest will be another's now, as long as I may live.
You will see me in the evening?--And what evening has there been,
Since time began with women, but old age and wrinkled skin?
