With Memories That Are 'Not' Selective Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The game of playing 'catch-up' as many do,
Has never been proven to be effective.
Nor expressions made to others in disrespect,
Has ever been interpreted by those affected...
As an invitation expected to be accepted.
Or a thoughtlessness invested,
Would provide 'them' benefits to remain interested.
Especially when foolishness involved had been deposited.

And yet the ones believing with delusions kept,
Will not come to comprehend or understand...
When their actions done to offend others effectively,
The ones with memories that are 'not' selective...
Have moved on with their lives to live and graciously,
To forget immature actions of others that had 'then' upset...
Today harbor no regrets.
Or wish to express a forgiveness to ask from anyone.
