What Will You Do?

What will you do?

When?
What will you do tomorrow?
What will you do next?
What will you do with your life?

Does it matter?

Why do I need to know?

Why not think about now?
We are eating dinner.
What will we do next?
Why not just enjoy the meal?
The comfort food brings.
The tenderness of meat.
The fluidness of drinks.
Why think about the future?
Why do we need to look forward?

Are we unsatisfied with now?
