The shame drone.

TBS 7-22-2023 poem.

Thump. Thump. Thump. 
It approaches. Push it back. 
Bad memory, don’t come. 
Ow … I don’t want you back!
Thump. Thump. Thump. 
Why did I do that?
I’m an idiot! 
Did you see how they looked at me?!
Thump. Thump. Thump. 
I am worthless. 
They hate me now. 
I hate me!
Thump. Thump. Thump. 
Make it stop!
Dear God, help me!
silence ...
Was what I did so bad? 
Did they really care about it as much as I did? 
It meant nothing to their lives. 
Let it go.
