“Do-over”
As if life is a rehearsal.
Time traveled, repeated pasts,
To get it right.
Would the over be a different lover,
More education, a different job
More adventure?
If I only hadn’t talked in anger
Or loved so freely, or gave more,
Life would be perfect.
Nothing changes if the doer doesn’t.
Hindsight is blind
To spur moment decisions
A cheat sheet wanting answers
To the wrong question.
Over- Done
