Leave Nothing Behind

Leave no stone unturned.
Leave no desire not yearned.
Then look back on it all.

Leave no poem without word.
Leave no song unheard
and never let them fall
into a space where all of them
cry out for their place.

Leave no book unread.
Leave no soul unfed.
Leave no scowl upon your face.
All of these things you left undone
you must learn to embrace.
