Good Or Bad Again

I wanted to start again
To smooth out those bumps I like to defend
But how would that work now
So much has happened I wouldn’t know how

Perhaps just to close my eyes
Or wear a Clouseau disguise 
Then again would I make the same mistakes
Would I make them again in the new life I make

I think that hindsight can be OK
The question of good or bad would be just as  as vexed this way
Would the present into past conspire
To get me to a similar place as life transpires.
