The Times Are A’Changin

Nothing has happened yet.
There is nothing
at the moment
to worry about.
Well
I tell a lie.
Things have been said.
Promises have been made
that are disconcerting.
Of course
before that
other promises were made
that were disconcerting
and then reneged.
Everything is in flux
and honesty
is a long-gone casualty.

When dealing with a liar
there is so little reason
to expend effort
on what he says.
He’ll just change it later.
Worry about what he does
and then
what others let him get away with.
There is so little
to worry about
yet.

Wait a week
or two
THEN worry.
