Successes, weighed
We’re told to look forward: forge ahead, blaze a trail,
chart a course, carve out a path toward this
and then that and then next and then after.
Successes weighed in need, have, plan and later.
There is merit, though, in turning a head backward,
seeing stones tossed that landed, and those that missed a mark.
