If things don't go to plan
if everything goes down the pan,

learn to fish.

wish I'd known this then.

we move on
like the cogs in machinery and
if well oiled,
we move on efficiently.

I can live with the past,
I don't need a fishing rod
to catch and relive it.
I
give it a wide berth
the
earth's big enough for that.
