a change is gonna come

i can
hear music from the upper
window
of the apartment
building.
there's a potted
plant
on the sill.
i hear Sam Cooke
singing,
in his mellow way.
a change is gonna come.
i take a seat
on the stoop and listen.
i savor
the moment.
drifting
back into yesterdays.
nothing is
truly gone.
