Can’t change the past
No control of the future
One can only control the present
****
What matters is the now
The choices we make now
Living in the moment is delicate
It can be freeing
*****
Past regrets are debilitating
Future predictions are unknown
Why think about them so much
******
The past doesn’t matter anymore
The future is an unlived space
It doesn’t come until the next day
Or even the next minute
*****
Live in the moment
Anchor in the present
Because the present is a precious gift
Enjoy it while you have it
You never know what you might miss

What Did You Expect: A Loki Poem
Quick Intro: I sometimes write poems or song lyrics (which I only sing in my head) that are inspired by TV shows or movies that I watch. Right now, one of my geeky obsessions is the infamous Marvel villain, Loki. Whether it's the Avengers franchise or the Thor trilogy, that character keeps me glued to the screen. So, of course, I'm a fan of his new series on Disney Plus. Not just because I love the character, but because that show really delved into his psyche. Who is Loki? What makes him tick? Can we ever know for sure who he is or what he wants? I went down that rabbit hole while writing this poem. I hope you guys like it!
