The Disdain

Bygone beleaguered and upcoming vague
it's NOW that must sustain

Intolerable may the affliction be,
but borne the ephemeral pain

Nothing is enduring and must logically lapse,
to start all over again

Consistency is the only hallmark
one fervently needs to attain

A step in front of another,
on the long trudge one has to maintain

To witness the proverbial sunshine
following bucketfuls of rain
