Past Pandora Problems Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

it is better
if you forget
the past

and concentrate
upon doing
anything productive

the past
has much
to teach

us if we
are prepared
to learn

life lessons
forgiveness
a primary

lesson
those
who

have suffered most
can if they desire
draw upon a catalyst

of tortured
memories
like phoenix

reborn
give wisdom
peace

to those
still entombed
within flames

of transformation
or self destruction
beyond agony choice...
