Skin Game

Mutley Ravishes

Imagine there was no such thing as 

Forgiveness

And you had to be a

Witness

To your own condemnation 

No chance of redemption 

For all eternity 

One must die endlessly, it’s been said,

For life is creative 

Indian sages

Making spaces

Where thought 

Is out of its depth 

The cobra sheds

Its skin 

Two or more times in

A year

    A good message. Many people have difficulty with forgiveness. It is often confused with forgetfulness. I try to forgive for my own sake, but I do not forget.
