Hindsight

They call it a gift,
Oh the wonder of it
Its 20/20 perfection
even keener reflection

to shed light and excuse, oh
lucky the man who has it.
lucky to be able to explain;
how next, we’ll exercise refrain

wrong place wrong time
is a common el/ illucidation
but why infer misdemeanor
I prefer something less of a slur

Relationships, lovers, lives
Impacted by circumstance?
Or Jealousy driven vice
Exacting a pain free sacrifice

So fuck you yes you hindsight
Foresight and forethought too
I’m done with this escape card
For when it all goes askew
I’ll own my own guilt my internal haiku
