Recently after having moved I decided I would go through my “Writings” boxes and kind’a clean house a little…
We all, all us writers produce far more material than ever sees the light of day, or retire somethings to a memory box having moved on from an idea or a style.
While condensing, compiling and cleaning out however I also came on a number of poems that had never made it, for whatever reason on to any of my blogs.

Wisdom
I have lost better poems than this
Boxes crammed
Notebooks full abandoned under
Rapid retreat
Poems

Thrown away as trash

As clear as when I first wrote it
Flash of insight like

Mowing the lawn
Sometimes I remember them vaugely
A title
Clever phrase
Other times nothing
Not even enough to miss
What I’ve forgotten
Only the knowlegde that
I have indeed
Lost better poems than this one
