If It Ain'T Worth Remembering
Patches on the quilt of life,
letters sew not rend
Memory darning time to time,
future warmth depends
Words left tattered, words that bind,
ragged breath portends
To stitch it once and have it last
—tomorrow on the mend
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2020)
Inspired By Lynyrd Skynyrd’s Ronnie Van Zant
“If It Ain’t Worth Remembering, It Ain’t No Good”
