F is for Forgiveness

Failed forgiveness.Carried grudges.Loads and burdens.Projections,blame games
Guilt edged insecurities,paying in paranoia.Could not release,nor reprogram
Even now,past poems haunt like poltergeists-reinterpreting events like RASHOMON.
If i could only leave this moment behind.And this one.Iraq#1.Iraq#2.Bush#1,Bush#2
Familiarity programming(not family viewing).Censoring miracles through lack of belief in them.
Even now,Niobe/Didymus.Even now,Diogenes over Archimedes.Just will not let go
Dogged teeth clawing.History over prophecy.Even science needs myth.Gods need us-
to believe in them,so they might forgive our lack of belief in action.Release is a fantasy
screened upon blank eyes ,hearts,minds."One day we will be free.."
If i have to wait one day,i will never be free!Meantime,in the Dreamtime,forgive me
I cannot do it for myself or ye (who have more faith than i-that forgiveness tried
will lead to success in acceptance.What is left is continuance/habitual
When you cannot change ,forgiveness is all...
