Eve

The night before, no one
knows for sure tomorrow will come
Christmas Eve, Erev Yom Kippur,
Eve of new year, marriage, birth.
Festivals require celebration
Eves require trust -ability
to act as if. Every moment is
transitional, uncertain, eve to
the next moment of life as I know it
or eve to mysterious unknowable chapter.
