Regret
A New poetry form invented by Aggie in Malaysia. She named it Chinky - My first try, and not a very good one. My gerund at the beginning is incorrect.
Regret is prowess burned in rubbish dump,
on life’s immense archive of dreg debris.
Who would desire to scavenge refuse, pump
and bring again for everyone to see?
Why waste my treasured time to nurse regret?
Why waste my treasured time to nurse regret?
For future days, my one and only plea
that yesterday’s charade shall pose no threat,
and coming days shall count as victory.
Regret is prowess burned in rubbish dump.
