If I’d known better

If I’d known better I’d have done better

But I didn’t so I did what I did

Many things I regret by all measure

And many things I wish I hadn’t said.

And then I started to pay attention

And asking questions about things I doubt

Realising my lived experience

Isn’t now and never was the default.

These days I believe I’m doing better

There’s so much work that still needs to be done

This journey has hairpins and blind corners

It never ends but look how far I’ve come.
