My Penn South writing class did not like
the prompt sorry did not much
like the idea of regret and though I too
have never thought regret was a good idea
I spend some time these days of repentance
we could call them something else in this poem
these days of good consideration
a more positive spin I spend some time considering
what has happened in my long life
all that I don’t know people I wish
I’d been kinder less judgmental
wish I’d been more disciplined
but mostly I am grateful for this
imperfect life where I hear
my Penn South class even when they
dislike regret, that I live in a bright
orange room on the corner
of 77th Street and Columbus
that every single day Someone Says Something
(and I write it down.)
Love it
I think Restore when I hear or read Repent.
Shana Tova!
