Sunday Poem

///
Look Not to Memories
Angela de Hoyos

wear your colors
like a present person
...............today is
...............here & now

let the innocent past
lie
in dignity:

...............broken wing
...............wilted lily
...............shroud

don't look back
the goodbook
advises
...............lest you become
...............a pillar of salt

. . . and I'm a fool
for not discarding
...............my worn-out
...............bags of guilt
///
