Forget or Forgive ?

If 'to forgive is to be divine'

To forget is to be vulpine.

Forgetting is born of

Memories flirting with events.

Forgiveness is nothing but

The freezing of fuming memories.


One cannot forgive men and matters

With memories heating up,to boil the past.

Dead woods are easier to burn,than green.

Who can vouchsafe they forget and forgive,

With a hindsight,harping on a heap of scars?


Neither,farsight means,being out of memories.

Memories,that drive on the roads to the future,

With a hard drive of files of the past,

Piled together,trigger self-start grudges.

To forget,or forgive is a furrow without ridges.


When we swear that we forget and forgive,  

We prepare to forgive,but pretend to forget.

To forgive is easier,because its pattern is farce.

To forget is hard,as scars are in memory's card.

But forgetting surpasses the gratitude code,

As forgiveness bypasses the forgetting mode.

P.Chandrasekaran.
