There are certain worries in life
you need to walk far from.
People, places, points in time;
words which stick,
people who pick,
substance abuse,
the constant misuse
of a good-natured being.
Devices do linger,
the pointed finger
of mishaps and miscreants.
Guilt-
a wilted flower goes to seed.
A deed to bury
and root over sins
of dirt, earth,
and the will to be beautiful.
