You remember too much,
my mother said to me recently.
Why hold onto all that?
And I said,
Where do I put it down?

i was so relieved the day
i realized i’d outgrown
revenge.
even though there may have still been
some self loathing
loitering as echoes in the hallways and
smoking under the streetlamps at night,
there was finally indication of
how
forgiveness may be a strength.
i impressed myself. i felt impressive.
but i knew even then, that day,
how
feeling impressive
is counter-productive.
