when we had a future

we used to talk
about the future when we
had one.
when the days
before us 
were much greater
than the ones
behind.
if we're lucky,
we'd say to blot
the jinx,
if we're lucky we'll be
healthy
and happy,
wealthy and wise,
maybe on a beach
somewhere.
lying beside
the blue ocean,
under a golden sky.
