When our pasts are written over!

When our pasts are written over!

A Poem by andrew mitchell

When our pasts are written over!
We all leave our marks,
some use erasers,
others just mask our pasts;
when the smaller picture
is replaced by the bigger picture;
bigger crayons cover little crayons.

bigger tatts to cover the smaller tatts of past lives too don't forget about those!
Everyone deserves a new start but to deny the past is pure ignorance.
Thought stirrer A.M. !

How true. Some of the stupid things done when we were young and foolish we either do not admit to or try to cover up. But there always seems to be a family member that loves to spill the beans.....Valentine

sad but true .. i relate this especially to today's "standard" of re-writing most everything, including history, to suite their own brand of narrative .. its actually quite appalling to me ..it assumes a certain ignorance and "herd" mentality .. its rampant on all "the latest" eh!? your poem has pumped me up a bit .. to be a shinning knight and the round table ..;)
