I think of all I could have been
then look at what I am
remembering with sorrow when
I didn’t give a damn
so many people tried to help
though I just turned away
a cocky unrepentant whelp
determined not to pay,
and now I turn my pockets out
divulging all my shares
but like the me that used to pout
nobody really cares.
Such true words, and such a hard but hopefull place...if we could only know then what we know now....I think this one is one of my favorites of your poetry. :-)
