Guilt and Regret
19.
The Gaunts
where we used to sail
wooden block boats down the stream
(long gone now --
imprisoned in a culvert
when they built houses over it)
I'm sorry I named my boat 'Spanner'
to make fun of a childhood friend
I'd fallen out with.
It's tormented me all these years
what a shitty friend I was.
