The sins of the father
the sins of the son
Repentance left vacant
each sorrow rerun
An age of despondence
an age of denial
The past beyond hope
—the future beguiled

Dear Kurt,
A gem of a poem.
āThe past beyond hope
āthe future beguiledā
Your ending to āBlack Seedā reminds me of a conversation I once had with a relative of mine.
I ended the conversation with the following words:
Care and caution can prevent crash and burn.

Poignant, thanks Laura.
